T3200M not wired for Gigabit from ONT
Hi all, Yesterday I upgraded my Internet from Telus 75 to PureFibre Gigabit. I was noticing that I was only getting/maxing out at 100mbps through the T3200M (ethernet and wireless). That's when ...

you would need a minimum of 100 m or longer , custom make ethernet cable from the ethernet port ont modem to the T3200M.
Telus only provides a standard 5ft ethernet cable. Do you know how to run the ethernet cable from your basement to your main floor?
You do NOT want an ethernet cable over 100m as that's the max length a run supports. Telus provides more than just a 5ft ethernet cable.
jjdinks If you are unable to bypass that adapter and get an ethernet cable pulled through and connected to where the T3200 is, please call Telus. If they installed that adapter and it's limiting your speed, they will need to correct it. If there is a coax jack near where the T3200 is located, they may even be able to put a MoCA adapter where the ONT is located and use coax to get the signal to the T3200.

No, I could probably find some videos online or just use the existing DSL run to the T3200 and use that to fish the new ethernet cable in.
As for my home phone, I am pretty sure it is not on fiber so its not being connected from the ONT. I believe this is true because on the MyTelus website I am offered the option to switch the home line to fiber.

- Yes, the cheapest solution is to run an Ethernet cable from the ONT to the T3200M WAN port. If logistics are too complicated for doing that (walls and floors) then next cheapest option is Nighthawk suggestion of using MoCA adapters if you have an existing coax (cable) run. Third choice is PowerLine adapters that use the house power wiring.
- so ethernet cable from ONT to T3200 right so that I get Gigabit from the T3200?
No adapters needed right?
And to once again confirm, I will need to make this cable run myself? Your home phone line is on a separate line, on the existing copper line.
The ethernet is on a separate line, then a ethernet cable run between the ont modem and the adsl, ethernet adapter.
