2 months agoHi there, thanks for the detailed description. What you’re experiencing sounds like intermittent Wi-Fi interference or modem instability. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:
- Check for interference: Since you have multiple Wi-Fi networks nearby, try changing your 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz channels on the ActionTec T3200M.
- Consider temporarily turning off SmartSteering to see if the devices stay connected more consistently.
- Modem placement: Ensure the modem is elevated, central in the house, and away from large metal objects, microwaves, or other electronics that could interfere.
- Firmware updates: Confirm the modem firmware is up to date via the modem’s web interface.
Because this is affecting multiple devices intermittently, it may be a modem or network-side issue rather than the devices themselves. We recommend contacting TELUS Home Expert Support at support.telus.com/home-expert-sm so a technician can review.
