Wired to the modem or wired to the router, ie: the Apple Time Capsule?



I'd try going direct to the router, and then direct to the modem if you still see low speeds. If the results directly wired to the bridged port of the modem yield the same low speeds, you definitely have a case to tell Shaw to come fix your sh-t.
If you're bridged it won't matter. And if you're the hitron you can't bridge and unbridged yourself, unlike the xb6 which is just a software switch. I thought the 300 would require the xb6 as well, but my hitron will hit 300
