Damn, that's terrible. My iPhone did a 200MB app in 12 minutes yesterday over 3G! :)

Internet cut out some 5 mins ago again, but back online now. This is getting a bit annoying..

FerrariEnzo 09-08-2010 02:33 AM

i dont think its only shaw..

yesterday morning Telus internet was down or something for about 3 hrs.... i thought i should reboot the modem... but still no good... so i just played SC2 for 3 hrs and went online and it worked again...

TOS'd 09-08-2010 03:25 AM

Mines been cutting out, but only for like 2 mins tops each time. Sometimes the modem lights would reset, other times the lights stay on but the webpages take forever to load.

hotjoint 09-08-2010 07:36 AM

I thought it was my avg acting up so I disabled the web shield and pages loaded alot quicker

terkan 09-08-2010 11:37 AM

i can go check later when i get to work if there's any known issues around that area if you want. and run a modem diagnostic for you ~ pm me ur address or the phone # on the acc if interested

Yeah , happening to me as well :mad:

terkan 09-17-2010 11:06 PM

haha standard procedure for us.. tell the cx to by pass the router..
yes it's lame.. but work wonders..

and please don't ever call in to shaw and expect us to provide you support with ur router.. those 3rd party company don't pay me to provide you support for those :)

I have no idea what a CX is, and is this "solution" in reference to my problem (as well as van19) where some pages load and some 404 randomly.

I am using a top-of-the-line router though. It's possible it's a router problem?... Unless you're doing direct-connect of course.

I have a buddy in Richmond who has the exact same plan as I have but he suffers with slower speeds and performances. Location can also be a possible factor.

willystyle 09-19-2010 06:54 PM

What router r u using to get 30Mbps? impressive.

lilaznviper 09-19-2010 07:23 PM

^its called speed boost

willystyle 09-19-2010 07:32 PM

^ The max I ever gotten with turbo boost was 20Mbps.
