Vijay is right. My hunch you were on the DHCP address space is confirmed by your 24.* address comment. I have business customers on Shaw static business and none of them have a 24.* address. Most have a 184.* address, like Vijay's.
You should find out from Shaw what your static range is, and set your firewall/router/whatever to use static and set the IP manually. That's what most of the setups I'm familiar with are doing.
I think we've solved your problem! Let us know...
I had a 183 address from them and it all worked. When we went to their 600Mb/s service and asked for 8 static IPs, they gave me eight 24.109 addresses (on two different subnets and gateways). I even asked them about that, and they said it wasn't the problem.
I think I really need to verify the 24 address space isn't part of their DHCP list, even though they gave them to me as static.
