Anyone actually get two Telus Boost 7s working with Ethernet backhaul?
Hey all — hoping someone’s cracked this. I just upgraded to 3 Gig Telus Fibre, and the tech left me with two Boost 7 units. My goal is to wire them up with Ethernet backhaul for the best performance...

Update: Got it sort of working — but not how I planned.
Turns out if you plug the second Boost 7 directly into the first one’s 2.5 Gb hub port, it auto-configures itself and joins the network. Both now show “wired – excellent connection.”
That said, it’s a janky workaround. I wanted all three Boosts to be wired into my switch (star layout), but there’s no way to manually configure or manage them. The Telus Connect app doesn’t show the Boost 7s at all, and the router’s web UI has zero mesh controls.
So yes, they work — just not how you’d expect for 2025 hardware. Hopefully Telus enables full multi-node or wired-mesh support in a firmware or app update soon.
