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.
