you're into pseudo-science rawb, you proved that too many times. you're definitely the last one on here I'd take seriously...so just keep on bragging mate, I could care less...oh well, at least you're entertaining at times.

EU has more users but theire networks are bigger and theire penetration is close to half of North America.

My speeds vary ALOT depending on the time of day, as this screenshot shows. Upload speed stays the same yet download has a difference of over 3000kbps(thats bits not Bytes)

I don't see any "tech knowledge" there at all...it's just your usual blah blah blah blah blah...no facts, just bullshit. I'd rather masturbate or read a book than to discuss things with you...you're a waste of time, no thx.

Okay, so I guess she's done with Shaw...

Quote:

ok...well you can tell all those fuckwads that over the past year I have done all of those things....I have done that test and checked my upload speed.....I have not gotten a call from shaw because NO ONE is able to upload off of me......and it's all date coincident from exactly when Ellacoya was installed on shaw. It's not random....it's been this way for over a year now. I uninstalled and reinstalled everything....I have checked for viruses, gotten a new hard drive, reinstalled windows, and on and on and fucking ON....and still nothing changes so it's not at my end....it's something they are doing....it has to be.....stupid fuckers

you couldn't help anyway...you call yourself mr. tech expert and don't even know what Ellacoya is...lol wtf man.

but thx anyway. and bye bye Shaw...

send me her acct info, i'll fill out the cancellation form.

you got a new hd and reinstalled windows to fix your upload? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA

no one that knows anything about bandwidth would take it that far.

Well, it was like the 100th desperate attempt to fix things...

We did everything...various virus checks, Knoppix...we raised the XP connection limit and forwarded her ports, the slsk test says they are open and she's not firewalled or whatsoever...we checked for worms and rootkits...we defragmented her disk...lavasoft, spybot, ewido, the ms spyware removing tool...we did all that...f-secure, NAV, free-av, mcaffee, AVG...everything. Hell, she even tried 2 different modems now and unplugged her router. Speedtests? lol dude...we did like 10 of them, yes. No need doing one more...it's not a WLAN, no. we tried safe mode as well. I was right there at her place...so was a Shaw guy, that was not even a week ago...he even confirmed to her that her set-up is okay...she could be capping herself? lol yeah, sure...slsk doesn't allow capping and she never enabled such a setting in her router or fw...

another proof that Shaw shapes - uploading to one-click-filehosters works fine...get over it, your ISP is shaping traffic and you don't want to see it. you don't even know what Ellacoya is but claim to be a tech expert...it's so obvious that they shape dude. users confirm this problem on various boards. also, news article confirm that Shaw uses Ellacoya...see above. slsk and DC admins/ops confirm the problem as well. it's always Shaw and the uploads.

of course they don't block downloading...it's legal in Canada. anyway this decision should be left to the customer and not forced by the ISP.

Shaw shapes traffic, if you believe it or not...they do...period.

and now I'm outta here...thx everyone who tried to help! :)

ppcock · #75 (**permalink**) Jan 10, 07

dude, you didnt even send me her acct.. you're full of it.

anyways, yup.. fuck your friend. my speeds are perfect.
