I'm on Shaw High Speed
I have the old green Terayon from like 10 years ago
My IP is 24...

So what do I do?
Where is the nearest place (from Burnaby) I can get my modem swapped?
How do I contact them? Which email address?
Why do you get a new IP address?

way2quik 02-25-2009 10:11 PM

My IP is still 24.xxxx.
IP doesn't affect your download speeds at all, at least it shouldn't

Downtown on Cordova (inside Shaw Tower), Surrey, or North Van (Pemberton).
Call the support line if you need anymore help, it is on their site.

why is everyone's upload higher than mine?
My average is 430 and I barely even get 460 kb/s.
Horse crap.:flamemad:

Just one computer?
Try again at night and reset your modem (Unplug for 30secs and plug back in outlet)

i heard from the friend that shaw has problems with power boost

not a problem for users though
it just powerboost and doesn't disconnect itself

way2quik 03-02-2009 09:29 PM

That would explain all our tremendously high speeds. lol.

well bowerboost says it's a temp boost to start things... it probably lasts about the same amount of time as the speed test lasts... meaning the tests are fake. you can get that speed for a couple secs but not continuous

lilaznviper 03-04-2009 06:33 PM

dunno about that man im getting speeds around 900kb/s and 1mb/s downloading on bt and im on highspeed

Peturbo 03-04-2009 06:42 PM

^ I've hit 2mb/s at peak while downloading a movie from a private torrent site.
It was at a steady 1.8-1.9mb/s throughout most of download.
And I'm on extreme-I

extream I claims 15Mbps. which is about 1.9MB/s so you are getting the rated amount.

some of the tests are upwards of 30Mbps. which is about 3.8 MB / s, double the rated speed.
