Internet connection then drops then connects
My wife and I have iPhone 16 pro and pro plus. They work flawlessly on any other wifi but our Telus home wifi we can watch them go from 5g to wifi and back and forth. I reached out to Telus and since my laptop has no issue connecting they think it’s our phones Apple can’t find any issue and thinks it’s the wifi since our phone connect and have no other issues on other networks. we have a telus provided t3200m router that is 7 years old.
Extreme Packet Loss / Late Packet Issues every few days?
Hi all, Every few days (sometimes multiple times a day), packet loss will go through the roof. This affects things like Facetime, Zoom, and even games and has been extremely inconvenient. A reboot of the router fixes the issue, but only temporarily. I haven't been able to try over ethernet, but the problem definitely happens across multiple devices all at the same time. It also tends to resolve itself a few hours later? See attached images for packet issue examples. Have plenty more... I recently upgraded to the PureFibre X Internet 3G plan from my 1G plan before. Have been with Telus for close to 10 years now and never had issues like this... In the upgrade, technician upgraded me to the new Wifi 7 Router (B30A) from the Telus Wifi Hub Router. He also made some changes to my Fibre Connection outside, I believe. What can be done to fix the issue? What is even the issue? Is this a router problem? A This has been driving me crazy. I've resorted to restarting the router on a daily basis using a timed plug, but even that is not resolving things fully. Thank you in advance... Things I have tried: Disabling the AP Steering, Band Steering, Legacy Steering Getting a replacement B30A Router Changing DNS to 1.1.1.1 on devices
TELUS routing issue to game servers VPN should not be necessary
Hi TELUS, I believe I am experiencing a routing/peering issue on my connection. My local network is stable, but latency to many servers including game servers is higher than what other TELUS users report. Across multiple users on the same ISP I see two routing outcomes: Some users get: ~18 ms Seattle ~33 ms Chicago Others including me get: ~1 ms Edmonton ~5–7 ms Calgary ~56 ms Seattle ~57 ms Chicago ~75 ms Los Angeles ~78 ms Dallas I confirmed this with 2 users on each path, suggesting this may be due to IP pools or upstream routing differences. Using a VPN reduces Seattle latency to ~18 ms, matching the lower latency users. The VPN routes through Zayo, suggesting a better path exists but is not used by default. Traceroutes show TELUS is stable (~1–26 ms), but latency increases by ~30 ms at a Seattle transit hop (e.g. NTT). I have tried basic troubleshooting (rebooting router) with no change. Setup: TELUS fibre, wired Ethernet, TELUS NAT Testing: in-game latency, ping, traceroute Seattle, WA (128.116.115.0/24) → ~56 ms Los Angeles, CA (128.116.116.0/24) → ~75 ms Chicago, IL (128.116.48.0/24, 128.116.84.0/24) → ~56 ms Dallas, TX (128.116.95.0/24) → ~78 ms Ashburn, VA (128.116.102.0/24) → ~74 ms Location: Edmonton, Alberta Here are some images of Traceroutes.
