Default cable internet download speeds
Using Shaw and just replaced the cable modem as downloads ended up taking forever. Since then been testing the download speeds from here and finding getting only 450-600KB/sec. Have their regular "High-Speed Internet" and as is well below the possible 5MB, wonder what others are getting?

I'm with shaw too, and lately my downloads have been ridiculously slow. Not sure what speed I'm getting, but I think I'll go check.

Man I gotta to get Shaw...I am only getting 159. Actually speed from shaw depends on how many people are on that line(sorta like party lines) ASDL is independent on the number of users on the line...just the distance from the hub
