  I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the authorization of the serial port is not currently possible through Shaw cable.  I am Ron representative 0000 from Shaw.  At this time we have specific reasons in which we will not be implementing this feature. I can't get to specific with the details, all I can say is that it is not completely out of the realm of possibility that we would activate this at some point, but we are not at this time. If we do make it available, we will advertise it on shaw.ca.
