Yikes! Sometimes these panels contain cut wires, and its totally fine. I have cut wires in mine, and everything is working perfectly. Its not done to sabotage or damage your network configuration in any way. I cant speak for the previous technician that was there, and or their actions, nor can I confirm what wires are cut but I can do my best to help direct you to the correct department who can request a technician.
The department you would need to speak to is our TELUS Home Service Technical Support. You can speak with them via live chat Click Here and click the purple chat icon on the bottom right corner. Or speak to an agent over the phone *611.
I hope they are able to resolve this issue for you in a timely manner.TELUS Employee & Neighbourhood Volunteer :black_small_square:If you found this helpful, let others know by clicking the ❤️ Like button.
The wires that are cut are blue wires

TELUS Team MemberThanks for providing details as to the colors of the cut wired, but unfortunately the color of Ethernet cables rarely mean anything. There is no accurate way to determine what the cut wires even do, or where they lead to without using a tool called a Continuity Tester which a network technician will have in their toolbox. For this type of issue, its nearly impossible to solve it virtually, otherwise I would have provided some step work for you. Unfortunately this one is out of my control. I do hope you are able to get in touch with TELUS Tech Support so they can assist.
- BrandonT I have called Telus and they said the can’t investigate because of covid-19. Do you know any Technician in surrey, bc that can help?

JujhaarSekhon Awe darn, sorry to hear TELUS is unable to investigate during COVID-19.
Although frustrating, I would suggest waiting until TELUS is available to send out a technician, since they are the ones who installed in, and most likely know how to fix it. Some 3rd party technicians refuse to touch TELUS property.
If you do not want to wait, I cant officially recommend nor endorse a 3rd party technician, but I can make it easier to search for a 3rd party technician by Clicking Here to view a Google Map of possible technicians in your area.
Perhaps another customer on this forum could request a 3rd party technician they have used in the past.TELUS Employee & Neighbourhood Volunteer :black_small_square:If you found this helpful, let others know by clicking the ❤️ Like button.
