T3200M and 3rd Party Router
Hello, I'm a new Telus customer. We just had the service installed and I'm trying to improve the internet speed on my WiFi network using a 3rd party router. First things first. Hardwired to the Telu...
Ask the tech to put in an ONT if one does not exist already. Then connect directly (using your Ethernet cable) from the ONT to your preferred router/wifi located centrally in your house. You don't need to use the T3200 unless you have Optik, and then it could be set to bridge mode downstream of your preferred router. As you found out you need to turn off the QoS in your router. With a fast AC wifi router you will get 600 down/up on wifi as long as you are in close (20ft) proximity.
Maybe I'll factory reset the DLink modem and start from scratch. I appreciate your time.
No problem. It's easy to help people who put in the effort to help themselves.
Check the link speed on your WiFi connection on the device side.

Telus is sending a technician. Apparently I should be getting 600 over wifi beside the router. Thanks
- If you are having problems with a non-Telus device I doubt Telus will have any solutions. You may want to check the DLink support forum.
Reset the modem. No change 80mbsp.
Going to see if Telus chat has any ideas.
