Shaw techs are not available to come to my house until Sunday January 6th!My download speeds are around 1.5 Mbps.
Is it possible the modem has gone? Should I just demand a new modem to see if it fixes the problem?
From ifconfig eth0 (my nic to a Shaw Cisco DOCSIS 3.0 gateway modem)...
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:10:4B:2E:96:32 inet addr:24.78.229.87 Bcast:255.255.255.255 Mask:255.255.252.0 inet6 addr: fe80::210:4bff:fe2e:9632/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:228132147 errors:10935 dropped:0 overruns:14571 frame:10935 TX packets:137992608 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:2606397745 (2.4 GiB) TX bytes:727274930 (693.5 MiB) Interrupt:19 Base address:0x20c0

Is this just a major node congestion problem or a faulty modem?
