On a 3mbps connection, with 2 landlines, and 2 mobility accounts. Infrastructure is not upgraded in my area to give me more than 3mbps. Have had it now for about 6-7yrs. Using an older Linksys ADSLME3 modem with WRT54GL running tomato. Rock solid combination, as I run torrents, up to 7 systems, some wired and some wireless, wireless bridged to my xBox, and 2 wireless print servers. Worst part of Telus is their support - if you are fortunate enough to get someone who is knowledgeable and in Canada, all is good. Look out if you go overseas for support to someone reading off of a flow chart and for whom English is a new skill. Best part of Telus are the support staff that know their jobs and are more than willing to do what it takes to help you. I've had some tricky issues fixed immediately, while other issues, need repetitious calls to get the right person. Never call past 1700h MST as I always seem to go to the Philippines. Once you know the pitfalls, its pretty good, working within those parameters. Update: subscribed to 25Mbps, and loved it. For about a year. Unfortunately, Telus' service is popular here and now in the evenings, sometimes a YouTube video cannot be streamed, at any resolution. Hopefully our area is upgraded sooner than later. Running all of my own gear, and connection still rock solid, just the oversubscribed area. member for 22.7 years, 1422 visits, last login: 118 days ago updated 9.6 years ago |
