Dangerous advice since I have not tried myself but... You should be able to turn on the router, plug it into one of the network ports, and set up a wifi network.

In theroy you should have 2 wifi networks in your house, Shaw and Dlink. Connect to dlink on you device. In theroy you should have internet. Now you can call shaw and get them to bridge/turn off wifi.

Massive disclaimer that this may not work, but I don't see why it shouldn't.

Plan B is to get them to switch it, and you can allways call back to back out af any time.
