Modem/Router Upgrade Support Doesn't Understand
Hi there I currently have the t3200m and boost wifi extenders. the t3200m is an awful modem/router and want to exchange for the new wifi telus hub. Support keeps telling me its only for celluar when ...
The Smart Hub is for cellular. The new Telus Wifi Hub is specifically for fibre customers. You will not get a PM from anyone on the forums here in regards to swapping hardware. Fibre installers / techs are the only ones with the wifi hubs. They are only sent out by tech support to solve a problem or if you get fibre installed. Even then there is no guarantee they'll have a Wifi Hub depending on availability of the hardware. Telus isn't doing in home visits either due to Covid-19. If you don't have fibre, you won't be able to get the Wifi Hub.
I have purefibre gigabit internet. The problems I'm having I know are all related to the t3200m as I never had any of these problems before I added tv. Before I could just plug my own router directly into the ont but now I have to use this old antique. It's a shame you guys couldn't just send me one in the mail. Doesn't make much sense considering you should be avoiding home visits. I guess I will phone support again and hopefully get someone who understand their own products and services.
Thanks
