TELUS PureFibre® is the #1 internet technology for speed and reliability. Our fibre optic network is powered by flexible strands of transparent glass no thicker than human hair. These strands transmit information as pulses of light, and carry huge amounts of information in the space of seconds. Lightning-fast upload and download speeds mean that you can enjoy a fast, consistent connection whether you are gaming, streaming TV in 4K or video calling with friends.

Wi-Fi 6 is the name for the latest Wi-Fi technology certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance, based on the IEEE 802.11ax standard. The key benefits of Wi-Fi 6 are higher data rates, increased capacity for devices, improved performance in environments with many connected devices, and improved power efficiency (battery life) for connected devices.

Our Wi-Fi 6 hardware is designed with tri-band technology and delivers the fastest Wi-Fi in Western Canada for all your devices. Plus, our Wi-Fi 6 hardware features award-winning design that looks great in any home.

Download speed means how quickly you can receive data from the internet. When you’re browsing websites or streaming music or video, it’s download speed that matters.

Upload speed means how quickly you can send data to the internet. This is important for high quality video conferencing (including Skype and FaceTime) uploading large files and – especially – intensive online gaming.

Most internet service providers have “asymmetrical” plans, with upload speeds that are much slower than download speeds. So, if you see a home internet plan that refers to a speed of “300 Mbps”, read the fine print. You may find that the upload speed is only 15 Mbps.

TELUS PureFibre® Internet plans are “symmetrical”. That means the upload speeds are just as fast as the downloads. For example, our Gigabit Internet plan boasts download and upload speeds of up to 940 Mbps.

Wi-Fi 6 can support as many devices in your home as needed. A feature called OFDMA (orthogonal frequency division multiple access) increases the efficiency of Wi-Fi 6 devices on the network to lower latency for both uplink and downlink traffic. Simply put, Wi-Fi 6 efficiently enables desktops, laptops, tablets and smartphones on your network to experience faster download and upload speeds.

What’s considered a “good” high speed internet connection depends very much on what you plan to do online. If you live alone, and you mainly just email and surf the web, then even our lower-speed plans (15 - 25 Mbps) will meet your needs.

If you’re heavily into streaming HD and 4K video, you should be looking for a home internet plan with at least 75 Mbps. If there will be multiple people sharing your connection, then you’re better off with 150 Mbps or more.

If you have an entire household of very active internet users – who stream multiple 4K shows at the same time, take video calls, are into online gaming, and like to back up large amounts of data in the cloud – look for a plan with 300 Mbps or more.

You can never have too much speed. And it’s always good to have some extra on reserve. So if it’s available in your area, our Gigabit Internet (940 Mbps) is the ultimate high speed internet plan.
