Yes, yes, who needs speeds this fast, but it was cheaper than my 1Gbps plan before this.
Anyway, we switched for 3 weeks and it’s been down twice for us now (both on weekends). It’s like I’m beta testing their new backbone or something – any other early adopters want to share their experience?
2023-07-19 Edit: since posting this it went down 3 more times. The TELUS on-hold music is starting to give me PTSD. There was something wrong with their backend where my network access hub kept getting un-registered (and my account getting unregistered), multiple times, but it’s been okay for 24 hours now (knock on wood).
A tech came by monday morning to look at it, and all they did was call their backend team, but he gave me specific instructions to give the frontline support, which was useful, but still frustrating.
I’m at I think about a 50% rate on “if we get disconnected, we’ll call you back”.
Maybe you can connect your own router in front of the access hub to get your own static IPs and subnets? It doesn’t need to be 10G, I would think many cheapish routers could handle 3Gbps (maybe?).
Like I said, over 2.5G it gets real expensive real fast (and it’s really power hungry to use general purpose computers as a router for this, even though I’m a seasoned Linux admin)
Fair enough. The devices that ISPs provide do seem to be pretty crappy in general.
