Re: Optik Tv and Google Nest Wifi Pro
So i have the following modem connected to the incoming fibre. Prevoously I had the wifi hub attached to that. The wifi hub was then connected to a switch. From the switch we have 6 LAN cables heading into my wall. At least 3 of them go to the TV and 2 of them were connected to Telus wifi boosters. I switched out the Wifi hub and replaced with the Google mesh...which messed up the TV but gave me great wifi. I'm considering a splitter from the modem. One to the telus wifi hub and then onto the TV's and the other to the Google mesh

Re: Optik Tv and Google Nest Wifi Pro
So it would appear that although the Telus router has 4 LAN ports Telus have only actually activated / enabled one. So I seem to have options of TV and crappy / poor wifi or no TV and great wifi. Does anyone know if it is possible to activate a second LAN port on the telus router?

Optik Tv and Google Nest Wifi Pro
Hi there I've been on Telus fibre for a while and also Telus Optik TV. The telus supplied modem and router are generally OK but we get fairly poor wifi coverage. I installed 2 Telus wifi boosters and it's helped but still don't get decent coverage. in discussions with my IT guy we decided to swap out the Telus router for the Google Nest Wifi Pro mesh system with 3 x Google Nest Wifi Pros. We now have pretty darn good wifi coverage throughout the condo (far superior to what we got with Telus router / booster set up). However, making that switch seems to have killed our Telus Optik TV. We get very frequent disconnects and at most can see about 15 seconds of TV before losing signal. Does anyone else have this issue or any solutions? I really don't want to go back to crappy wifi but may have to if we can't get the Optik TV to work with the Google mesh setup. Cheers Chris
