Congestion wouldn't cause your modem's lights to change (drop connection to the CMTS).

said by EMKO :

its mostly down but it does come back on sometimes for a few minutes but its very random. Yes completely down modem lights that are on when its working turn off like the online light goes from blue to off, ds and us go off and turn to green blinking light but that's from what i remember. Its not like the internet slows down i test it all the time and i get 60+Mbs it just turns off.

That isn't congestion, your modem is actually de-registering. Ask the Tech Support folk why your modem de-registers every day.

lostspaceman posted : That doesn't sound like congestion at all... Congestion would cause your internet to slow down and reduce the available BW, but I've never heard of a modem dropping it's link with the CMTS like that due to congestion.

Do you have other Shaw services? How are they during those hours?

anon posted : after 10am-1pm outage it works perfect i also thought congestion was in the evening when everyone would be using the internet the most but i don't know. Its a 100Mbps connection and i am in the NE Martindale area.

anon posted : Oh hey Bucko didn't realize you was a telus employee posting from Telus.com corporate. Makes sense though looking over your past posts.
For the OP that is a bit of a weird time for congestion? Complete outage, I've called in before about congestion too and was told the specific times it occurs but was not that much impacting, mainly in the evening. Did they tell you the prime time impact was lunch time? Is it shaw go wifi? I can see people using that at lunchtime..

kevinds posted : Didn't Telus recently lower their caps, and raise their prices? But this doesn't add to the discussion...

Going based only on the information the OP posted, that isn't normal congestion.

anon posted : Called Shaw a month ago they said its congestion and its getting fixed, month later and still the same crap but now they say it will be fixed in 2013. Whats the point of me paying for the internet when this is the time i am using it the most.
What alternative is there to Shaw in Calgary other then Telus?
