| [AB] Upgrade to 50 fails I was scheduled for a soft upgrade to optic 50 (vdsl)
I am not getting an IP address and have a ticket in with tier 3
What confuses me is tier 1 said I need a second line
I am in an apartment and have only one line in my suite
I also was not given the 2000 series modem when the tech was here yesterday
He told me I am at 100% capacitance for my current speed
Modem shows 32/3
I am about 1 block from the node |

Probably for bonded VDSL (two lines/pairs to the modem). This gives greater capacity than a single line. They'd also have to give you a V2000H gateway.
I didn't think they had started rolling out bonded VDSL yet though?

While you probably only have one pair currently active and wired up, chances are that the cabling into your apartment contains a minimum of two pairs, if not more. A tech would have to hook up the second pair.

But who knows where the lines go, how long they are, what type of cable, etc. Just because the cabinet is very close doesn't necessarily mean the cables are as short. |

Optik 50 launched in Alberta?? |

| Yes. Quite a while ago. Almost 2 months now. |

| pfak, I am more or less in the same boat. The telus remote is just across the street from my house. Unfortunately, the cable goes down the street, and then back for 1.2 -1.3 Km (estimated) loop. Very frustrating. |
