it's been fluctuating all day where it'd be fast for some posts but then super slow at times

striderblade 06-10-2009 02:53 AM

yeah i'm getting the same problem. Webpages will load fine this second and when i click on the next link, the whole connection is either slow or gone.

Last week, my terayon modem would disconnect and flash red, 4 times every night. It was annoying as fuck. Seems to have stopped doing that for now.

damn ur still using a terayon? you should really trade it in for a motorola. You're missing out....

Ikkaku 06-10-2009 11:21 AM

am I really missing that much? I'm still getting like 400kbps at nights lol

I'm too lazy to go downtown to get it exchanged. I miss the burnaby location :lol

Synapz 06-10-2009 11:56 AM

Mine's been stable, but speed sucks.

Non x-treme, got 4.8mpbs for download, and 0.24mpbs for upload, noticed it started happening like this over the weekend.

I'm using the Terayon as well.
So I bring the old modem to a shaw office, they will give me a new one for free?
Are the new one all the same? Faster?

Then I go home and plug it in and internet will work? Do I need to set any settings or anything?

non-xtreme also but I get 20down and 0.48 up?


Also, I noticed from shaw's page that the High Speed plan has a cap of 60GB/month now? Wtf. Since when? I think I may have to invest in a seedbox...

!MiKrofT 06-10-2009 03:45 PM

60gb cap has been there for a long long time. Xtreme has 100gb i think which is what I'm using. It never goes down...lol maybe like 3x in the 3+ years I've had it?

yes I walked in and walked out 2 mins later. they don't even ask. they are probably giving out lots every day.

mine was like 4x faster after I swaped modems.

your non-xtreme has higher download bandwidth than x-treme?

Shaw sucks...

lilaznviper 06-10-2009 06:09 PM

its because of speed boost so the speed test is never accurate

woob 06-10-2009 07:39 PM

yeah Powerboost is dumb as a marketing ploy, but I'll admit it does speed up downloads of albums by a fraction as long as your album isn't lossless. Anything over 100MB and Powerboost (on High Speed, at least) is negligible

the morotola modems generally have faster speeds and you're missing out on powerboost

it's best to let the account holder come into retail to get the swap done. just bring in the terayon modem and the power cable and they'll swap it for you. if not, you can get it mailed out as well

once you're at home, just plug it all in as usual and you should be good to go. you may need to power cycle a router if you have one

striderblade 06-11-2009 06:34 AM

fuck is anyone else here still getting hiccup from shaw? everyone morning my connection is like on and off and is starting to piss me off. Just wondering if it just my side or shaw side.
