We're committed to keeping you connected with the best possible WiFi experience which means we’re always improving our network. As we are in the process of making network upgrades, this means that some modems will soon come to their end of life and need to be retired.
To ensure you continue to get the best possible WiFi experience, you'll need a new modem by September 8, 2022. We've got you covered with a complimentary modem upgrade so you won't miss a thing.
If you use any of the modems listed below, you will have received a call, email and/or an invoice message from Shaw to discuss this change and hardware replacement options.
