Last week some random guy called me and asked me to bring my old Shaw Cable Modem to the Shaw Tower to get it exchanged/upgraded to a different/new one. I asked him why this is necessary and he said they are currently upgrading their system and my old one might not be compatible or even function in the near future and he said the benefits now would be faster speeds and all that jazz.

Did this happen to any of you guys? Is it really faster?.. is there some kinda catch? I dunno, my internet is still working perfectly fine I dunno if it's even worth the hassle to unplug it all and drive it down to the store.
