    -You do not like the modem for any reason
    -You have damaged the modem yourself (as determined by us and not including shipping)
    -You have tamepered with the modem in any way, including altering the serial numbers on the board or the stickers on the case, or you have opened the case.
    -You attempt to replace a modem which was not purchased from us.

    It is your responsibility to arrange for us to get the modem. We may pick it up and provide a replacement instantly in some cases, if we are able to test it on your premises.

    Replacements are shipped out (shipping paid by us) or delivered as soon as possible after the returned units are confirmed defective.

    This question/answer does not cover all situations. We reserve the right to refuse to replace a unit for any reason.

    We use Canada Post Expedited Parcel. This is a 1-3 day service to most urban locations and a bit longer to rural locations. If you are not at home or at your business to receive the parcel, it will typically go to the local post office to await pickup. You may use the tracking number provided by us to obtain status information from Canada Post.
