O Canada! → Canadian → Telus > Faster sync

Re: Faster sync

I wouldn't worry too much about it honestly, it's been hinted before on this forum that specific packages only available to fiber users is coming. When that is who knows, could probably expect something close to bell or Rogers ftth plans. Hell even sasktel has a pretty nice ftth plan out now.

if you dont have fiber then that 0 ping is probably due to you testing your speeds via wireless and speedtest.net making an error, i have had it happen before, ps you can still have ftth with optik+ internet 15, but you probably have adsl2+ since you have the 15, damn i wonder if i switched back to telus i could get that upload

Here's a more accurate ping test.

So that means Connor M is probably right. They might only be testing for DSL users.
I'd love to see this roll out for Fiber users, though.

By the way, considering you don't have fiber, that ping is awesome!

No fiber. I have optik +internet 15...

Hmmmm 15/5 Where have I heard this before. Oh wait FiOS.

Darthan, is your connection over fibre or did you mean you have optic tv with your internet?

nah, telus is probably just testing upgraded upload for dsl primarily, lets say there testing for stability or something, they probably already know your connection can support it, so they arent bothering testing with you, thats my best guess

nvm cause the guy who is getting 15/5 looks like hes on fiber to.. hmmm

It is. I meant things might be different because you are on a FTTH connection. They do speeds differently on them. One guy from Vancouver had Optik 50 over FTTH and in one test get almost 200 down and 30 up.

The V1000H isn't capable of providing faster upload speeds?

Ahhh. That must be why. Why do you use the V1000H in the first place you lucky

I have an Actiontec V1000H
I also have a fiber to the home connection.

I think he mentioned somewhere awhile back he had a VDSL modem.

Hmmm. Must be deployed on a area basis or line conditions. I honestly don't know.

Yup. No difference.

Did you unplug your modem for 30 seconds then plug it back in?

What? How did you get such amazing upload?

I'm on Optik High Speed (15mbps).
Here is my speedtest:

What plan are you on Tornado? 15Mbps?

My upload and download speeds haven't changed. Is this only for 25mbps or faster speeds?

I'm on regular Internet 25 and my sync speeds recently went from 28/3 to 33/5. I've gone from a maximum upload of about 330 Kilobytes/s to well over 500. This is with an ALU 7130 with the modified firmware.

I think it might have to do with what values you can safely sync at while maintaining a stable line. I'm synced at 33304 on the d/l and 5119 on the up and I'm receiving close to 5Mbps on my upload tests now. I'm also on telus 25 with no tv. Good on telus for letting the subscriber take advantage of higher sync rates ( upload anyhow as my d/l speed is still the same).

Is the faster sync only happening for Optik TV users? I don't have TV and I'm still synced at 31/3 (Internet 25). Would love to get the faster upload.

for optik 25 that looks like an amazing connection for the price, zajacz also looks very nice for being loop bonded, i havnt seen to many bonded connections with local pings as low as 10ms, i hope eventually i can get these telus services if my shaw node ever gets congested, even though it probably never will.

I am loop bonded and my sync rates are 74684Kbps down and 12279Kbps up.

OHMYGOD. Might need loop bonding though. What I've read from other users near me they get sync rates above that. I can't wait to ditch Shaw.
