Wi-Fi Booster 7 x Connect app
Hi everyone, I recently moved and was upgraded from a TELUS Wi-Fi Booster 6 to a Wi-Fi Booster 7. The Booster 7 is connected and working (solid green light, Wi-Fi is stable), but it does not appear at all in the TELUS MyConnect app. The app only shows the old Booster 6. This is an issue because I want to use my old Booster 6 as a secondary node to extend coverage upstairs. TELUS instructions say boosters should form a mesh once added in the app, but I can’t add the Booster 7 at all. The QR code won’t scan, and manual setup just searches and fails to find the device. I managed to add the Booster 6, but it shows a red light and no internet connection, likely because the Booster 7 isn’t recognized. I’ve tried multiple restarts, factory resets, and setting up the Booster 6 with and without Ethernet cable connected, no luck. Has anyone successfully added a Wi-Fi Booster 7 to the Connect app? Is Booster 7 currently unsupported or incompatible? Is there a workaround to create a mesh with Booster 7 + Booster 6? Thanks in advance!
TELUS Boost Wi-Fi 7 Buggy?
I recently upgraded to PureFibre 3G and needed a couple of TELUS Boost Wi-Fi 7 in my setup. The goal of the secondary Boost 7 is to replace my old Netgear router, which created a secondary Wifi network to manage the signal conflicts I previously had. I was hoping to just renamed the SSID to my old and all should be working as previously (in theory). The main Boost 7 worked as expected, but setting up the additional one was not intuitive as the "magic" of auto-configuration for meshing does not work and there is no visible WiFi signal. I ended up searching the Boost IP address by logging into the NAH and once in, I was NOT able to see the general settings around "SSID" (or anything else that I could possibly configure for that matter). I tried the alternative method of using the TELUS Connect or Smarthome+, but neither of them had a option or visibility into the Boost 7. It's all very confusing as what I search in Google or in this Neighborhood seems to be inconsistent. Has anyone else solved this or are you all in the same boat? At this point, I may have to purchase a new router instead and go back to my original setup...
Admin Gateway Portal Password issues.
Has anyone had an issue where even after resetting the Router using the pinhole to reset their Router been unable to log into the Gateway portal? I'm trying to access 192.168.1.254 When I try using my admin credentials there it says incorrect password. I reset it, using the default password on the router + New password Says default password is incorrect. However when i attempt to log into boost 2.0 at 192.168.1.65 using the same credentials it works fine, the only issue is that the page is so broken that it asks you to reset the password, and then logs you out no matter which option you choose. OH and to make matters even more confusing when i try to the option to reset the password (After im logged in) it says the default password is incorrect? I'm not sure what telus has done to their router gateway portal, but it's such a trash system now that this alone is making me want to switch ISP'sConnecting Arcadyan PRV65B to TP-Link Deco AX3000 X50
Hi all, I’m setting up my Telus Arcadyan PRV65B Wi-Fi hub with my Deco X50 mesh. With bridge mode off, the Deco works perfectly, I get strong, fast wifi throughout the house. I want the Deco to manage routing, so I switch the Arcadyan to full bridge mode. When I do, wifi drops completely on the Deco: the light flashes blue and yellow during setup but ends up solid red. I’ve set VLAN ID 35, priority 0, and tried cloning the Arcadyan’s MAC to the Deco. My in-wall Ethernet ports work fine. Tried power cycling and hard resetting both. Tried wiring the Deco into all 4 ports. The top light on the Arcadyan (Wi-Fi) is red, but the front internet light is green so bridge mode to be works correctly. I can attest to this as my smartTV is hardwired and connected with no issue. What am I missing, and how can I get the Deco to handle routing correctly to get the wifi working?
Latency/Packet Loss to Access Hub / Router
Hi all I have Telus fiber and it has been pretty much fine for ~1 year, but getting connection issues today. Figured I would ask the community before reaching out to CS, have seen lots of helpful posts. I have the white square Network Access Hub (NH20A) as well as the small Boost 2 router(?), and have been getting huge latency spikes and packet loss basically leading to a complete disconnect for ~1 minute. My wifi connection to the router remains at full strength. An example of this happening below, with charts showing constantly pinging the Network Access Hub and the Boost 2: Access Hub: latency up to 2650ms with 100% packet loss for 1-2 minutes Router: latency up to 520ms with 100% packet loss I've tried restarting both -- any other ideas before I reach out to CS? Thanks
