- Found access to another device with admin/app credentials
- Installed a VPN or used mobile data as a workaround
- Reset the router manually (if they have physical access to it)
We recommend the following next steps:
- Enable two-factor authentication on your My TELUS account for added security.
- Set up a guest Wi-Fi network for their devices and apply stricter controls there.
- Restrict physical access to the router itself to prevent resets or direct interference.
- Ensure only your device has admin access to the TELUS Connect app by logging out all other sessions (you can do this from the app’s security settings).
- Explore parental control solutions like TELUS Online Security or third-party tools that can monitor and control usage beyond the router level.
