Cost of rewiring entire house with fibre wires and no wi-fi

[superspeed]

Most connection issues are software and corrupt wi-fi or computer has a virus. You get this DOS attacks on the wifi router either from the internet or from another source nearby or wi-fi interference.

With hardwire. all that is not an issue and less technical problems with connections like resetting and and reinstalling and takes an hour. Eventually the wifi extenders may wear out as the cheap wifi routers or extenders have cheap power adapters.

What is the cost of rewiring entire house  with fibre or two floors using drills and fish tape to each room and going to the attic for 5 rooms?

You're looking for something that is beyond Telus. You need an electrician. Telus won't wire the whole house. Running fibre to multiple areas in the home is going to add a lot of additional costs and unnecessary expensive hardware also. You're better off running Cat6e or Cat7 ethernet cables and getting a good 2.5 or 10gigabit switch to connect it all to.

Rewiring with fibre would be pointless because the max LAN speed you could get from an ethernet switch is Gig speed and that's well within the capability of CAT6 copper twisted pair cable.  In addition at some point the fibre would have to be converted to copper as any devices you want to connect cannot accept a direct fibre connection.

The reason for using fibre over copper is distance.  Copper CAT 5, 5e, 6 or 6a tops out at a length of 300m or 1000ft whereas fibre far surpasses that.  Also, in your scenario you would need a fibre switch which is not realistic.
