Re: New PureFibre Install: Could not access Wi-Fi devices like Amazon Echo and IP Cameras
A follow up to my inquiry. I solved my problem by using my old router D-Link in bridge mode. Using my D-Link router I was able to access my Echos and IP cameras. Also, by plugging in my old router, the SSID named Brcm disappeared and was replace by the SSID of the D-Link router. However, the speed of Pure Fibre was slow under my D-Link router compared to the Actiontec T3200M. So after a few weeks I just switched to the T3200M using the network SSID and password shown on the back of it. I had to reconfigure all my devices though. I hope this helps anyone who had a similar problem.3.5KViews0likes0CommentsNew PureFibre Install: Could not access Wi-Fi devices like Amazon Echo and IP Cameras
Just got PureFibre a couple of days ago and it is pretty fast. Only thing is I lost all connections to wi-fi devices like Amazon Echos and IP cameras. So when trying to re-connect the devices, the Wi-fi Network Name SSID - TELUS4587 (on the side of the T3200M) does not show on any of the devices like the Echo. Instead, the SSID of the router (Brcm) can be seen. However I don't have the password for the router. I only have password for the Telus Network. The question is how to connect to my devices?3.7KViews0likes3CommentsNew PureFibre Install in a 42 Year House
Currently using Telus DSL in a older Vancouver Special built in 1977. No Cat cables/outlets, probably 2 pair copper line. Telus Fibre Optic came to my neighbourhood about 2 years ago and strung lines to most homes. They strung a line from the telephone pole to my house where it hangs today. I understand they will punch a hole from the outside into the inside of my basement wall and install an ONT. My question is what will they do next. Will they string a fibre cable to my current modem (connected to a wall outlet) in my 2nd story bedroom? If so will they charge me extra? Part of the basement is unfinished and the current line is visible. Its not like you have to tear up the ceiling. Also, I have a home alarm connected to the same telephone jack as the modem in the bedroom. The alarm panel is in the closet. So what happens to the alarm? Do it work via VOIP or do you need a device to adapt to VOIP? Thank you for your response.Solved3.1KViews0likes1Comment
