Hello, I'm having trouble connecting my Telus boosters onto my home network.  My boosters are connected to the network by hardwire for the setup.  On the mobile app, when I go to "Network", "Add" (booster), this message comes up, "You need to be on your home Wi-Fi and enter your admin password to proceed.  Please ensure you're connected to your Wi-Fi and reopen the app to try again".  My cell is connected to my home network.  I can see all my home wireless devices on the app.  I tried logging out of the app and signing back in.  I also tried reinstalling the app.  Nothing worked.  Any suggestion?  Can the boosters be configured through the router: 192.168.1.254 (without going through the mobile app)?  Thanks in advance.

Tibby came into the middle of the conversation between @dng and Telus support answered.

Tibby posted the picture expected from dng. It shows Telus with strong cell but weak WIFI.

Just reinstalled and same thing happening to me as well. This is unreal. Guys, this problem has been going on since 2023 and you're still failing to address it. Are we supposed to spend $400 on a proper mesh just because you guys can't get your s*** together? Do we need to escalate this to a consumer organization? Do we need to gather all this evidence and sue you for breach of contract? I hate to be nasty, but you need to escalate this within your organization and find a way around this problem, cause we are paying customers to which you are failing to provide service the way it should be.
