We have it, can't run our old outdated modem on it though, but other than that, no problems.

No there is a modem on the board where the line comes into the home and hooks your whole house up just like a regular phone.

I have had it for about a year. It has been better than Telus over that time. The calls are clearer and their plans suit me fine.

I've been on shaw phone for a few years now and I enjoy their service. So far so good, I recommend them.

RuGlu6 you can run as many phones as you have with shaw, basically works the same as the other phone companies. They run a modem into the main phone line and you can plug your phones into whatever phone jacks you have in your house.

I've been on shaw for a home phone for a bit now and have had not problems. I know a bunch of people that have been on shaw for years and they have not had any real problems. When shaw started home phone there were problems of no dail tone and people calling you getting a busy signal, but that was years ago and if this happpened and if you called shaw they would give you a free month service. Just think, you can bundle phone, internet and cable and save some money.

I can agree with this. I've had Shaw phone, internet and TV for a few years and had some minor phone issues early on but haven't had any trouble for quite some time. I would recommend anything Shaw.

I had them for about a year no issues at all.

Only got rid of it as I was only using the phone 1-2 times a month, so it wasn't cost effective to keep it.
