When Telus States "Wi-Fi equipment rental included"

[kamak]

Does that mean the cost of said equipment is included in the stated monthly plan fee? ie No extra charges?

Yes, that's what it being included typically means, especially for that plan since the NH20A gateway doesn't have it's own wifi on board, as you may be aware of already.

So all is included in the price the NH20A ONT/Router and the WiFi 6 Booster? We are charged monthly for the rental of the T3200M and the PVRs and DVRs at $5/month ea. The old Nokia ONT was free. So now the new plans include everything, the ONT/Router (can't be separated) and the WiFi device (just one?)

[Nighthawk · Accepted solution]

If in doubt, when you upgrade, ask them. If you're on contract, even a current one, Telus seems to regularly waive the rental cost for the T3200 and at least one of the set top boxes. If there isn't a separate credit on your statement, call in and ask if there are options to waive the rental cost.
