looking forward to your answer! ;)

quite honestly, i've never heard of ellacoya..

and you know what?? my downloads are blazing fast getting 400k-1mb per download. Yup, im one of the best techs out there. But i really dont give two shits about any of the customers.

i offered to help out, it beats waiting in line for 2 hours for a shitty tech to tell you in a nice way to fuck off.

well, if that offer still stands, that's great...
...just waiting for her to come back online...

uploads???? who cares about uploads?

ppcock · #30 (**permalink**) Jan 09, 07

none the less, for some reason... i can also do the uploads as well and see how it looks.

if she's doing serious uploading (i'd never thought i'd say that), he uploads should be super high.

obviously Shaw does coz they're blocking her from uploading...and that's not a valid question anyway. she pays for her upload so she should get the promised speed and not only 1 kb/s...end of story.

here's an idea...

UNINSTALL ELLACOYA

stokedfish you're a tool.

you read some shit on shaw's website and you have totally made up your mind that shaw is out to get your friend.

why not wait for her to come back online and do some tests like me and marty have suggested before you start crying.

BongMan · #34 (**permalink**) Jan 09, 07

but everyone else who has shaw hasn't rolled through this problem..

lol, yep...guess that's up to Shaw, eh? o.O

ppcock · #36 (**permalink**) Jan 09, 07

you know, she could be capping herself for upload.
did you see what her upload cap in the p2p settings are?

anyways, i gotta go to work.

pm me with
her phone number that the acct is under.
the customer s/n located at the bottom of the modem. (start with 07)
the address
dont do the acct #, for security reasons.
and let her know, if i find anything.. i'll give her a ring and do troubleshooting. But i highly doubt i'll find something.

cheers!

Uhmmm who else said they were affected???

anewlife · #40 (**permalink**) Jan 09, 07

Read what I posted above...the links.

Then do a search for "Shaw" in that forum. And read.

And then talk to the admins on slsk if you still don't believe me...

It's always Shaw Cable and the uploads...naw, this can't be a coincidence.

STOKEDFISH DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT SHAW WOULD LET 70-80% OF ITS BANDWIDTH BE USED UP BY TORRENT AND P2P TRAFFIC

THINK ABOUT THE LOGISTICS HERE

Shaw Communications has revealed details of its deployment of IP service control gear from Ellacoya Networks.
The companies said the system enables the operator to manage access and backbone network usage, a move designed to ensure quality for all high-speed data users. Shaw is using the Ellacoya e30 IP service switch in about 50 sites that service more than 1 million high-speed subscribers combined.
They did not specify how Ellacoya was being applied to Shaw, but the vendor's system is capable of prioritizing different types of traffic, whether it's for P2P apps, gaming or voice services.

Telus doesn't use anything like that, the tier 2&3 techs have not a clue what you are talking about.

anewlife · #44 (**permalink**) Jan 09, 07

ISPs in Europe seem to have no problem with this rawb...weird! ;)

the logistics? good d'n'b act, yep.

MAYBE BECAUSE EUROPEAN ISPS ARE PRETTY TRIFE IN SIZE

TRAFFIC SHAPING OR ANOTHER P2P/TORRENT TRAFFIC EASING TECHNOLOGY IS GOING TO HAPPEN ON ALL CUSTOMER-FACING NETWORKS EVENTUALLY

I never said that, you're mixing up things...

I was just rebutting rawb's statement, that's all.

I seriously doub that...

ISPs want money...it's a business.

I don't think they want to piss off 3/4 of their customers...

It certainly doesn't help that NA has internet penetration into over 70% of it's population, while EU is still sitting under 40% wait till it hits 60 - 70% and you will see all sorts of brakes and barriers put in place.
