@cassijon - I apologize about the downtime, it's definitely not what we want to deliver. We're currently undergoing a full Digital Network Upgrade (DNU) in the Richmond area that will allow us to expand our offerings there including Broadband 250 Internet. Our teams are taking the utmost care in ensuring we don't have any downtime for our customers but unfortunately are unable to guarantee this will never happen. If you have any questions about your account, please email us at ecare.help[at]sjrb.ca.

Cheers.

Ok, so I recently upgraded to shaw 50, and my speetests are always fine(recent: 39ms, ~44, ~2.8), but I get huge lag spikes constantly when playing online games (both on PC and Xbox), I'm connected directly through the modem, so how can I fix this?

I, too, live in Richmond. Haven't had a down time for ages. Guess depends where you live.

We'd have to run a few tests to see if the poor latency is in or outside the network first. Have you run a tracert when you get the bad spikes?
