Totally, but Cisco 3825 @ 120 is better than Hitron at 60. Same network, modem change, indicates a modem problem. Used to pay $110 a month for Internet 100, so if I can restore to previous speeds that will be a win, but it would be nice to achieve the 150.
Shaw Cisco 3848 24/8 is not common knowledge amongst the shaw employee's or readily available. When setting the Shaw 150 program, they cannot even select that hardware.
Router is an enterprise Microtic and is about 60 feet away from the modem in the mechanical. When I plug my laptop into the end of the modem run, the speed is compromised, and I tried different runs of cables.
