I'm with Shaw, but I do have a spare Moto 6141 modem I used to use back in Ontario that I know it's compatible with Shaw resellers. But the few resellers I found (CiK, Surf... etc) seems to ask mandatory modem purchase/rental.

My student promo on Shaw's internet is coming to an end, the same Internet30 is a whopping 70+ dollars vs. 30 I pay now. I thought about just staying with Shaw until July when I will cancel the service as I'd be spending a lot more time overseas and I can just stick with my cell internet when I'm back, but maybe there's some other options? (yes, I'm Asian... frugality lives in my DNA)

Going to check with Suntel tomorrow, but if anyone has any suggestion, I'm all ears (perhaps someone who works for shaw )
Lightspeed.ca you can use a your own modem and the activation fee is waived if you're already using Shaw. But the modem is only good for up to Internet15. You will need to buy a new modem is you want Internet30 or higher. Their website looks like shit and old for an internet service provider but it works LOL.

I just checked their website and your modem is not one of their approved ones. You can pick up an old Motorola 5120 modem on CraigsList for like $10
