Just "upgraded" from Shaw to Telus on what seemed like a pretty sweet deal, from 150mbps to fibre giganet (~940mbps) due to my recent move to Koodo. $75/month for gigabit fibre. Yet I am disappointed in the speed, both DL and UL. Myself nor the tech guys could get anywhere close to those high listed speeds on DL or UL. I mean sure, it's faster than the 150 I had prior, but 250-400 is nowhere close to 1000. We tried multiple devices, around both the booster and main modem, with my extender, multiple speed test sites, etc. The closest we got was fast.com actually hitting over 1GB once, but never able to replicate that speed again or on any other site.

I made the guys stick around until they got on a call with support who said they removed some error from my modem and it should hit much higher speeds once the device "settles in". Hopefully that is true...

Anyone else have any issues with Telus gigabit fibre recently?
