Self-installation
The self-installation process for PureFibre High Speed Internet access normally takes around 30 minutes, but may vary and can take longer.
As a reminder, replacing a gateway will result in a change of settings to your internet setup, specifically Wi-Fi settings (SSID and Passphrase). Be sure to connect all of your devices to the new network once you are done with the gateway setup.

Warning: To prevent risks associated with fibre optics, always handle with care and make sure to never look at the end of the cable. Always point the end of the fibre optics cable towards the ground.
Warning: Additional precautions must be taken when working near an electrical panel. TELUS recommends that a certified electrician be hired if electrical work needs to be done.
- Connect the new power adapter to the new modem router and plug it into a wall outlet
- If you have just changed the modem, please reconnect all the ethernet cables as on the previous modem
Connect devices such as computers, smartphones and tablets to Wi-Fi using the wireless network name and password on left side of the T3200 modem
Installing this new modem has changed your current wireless network settings (name and password). If you changed the settings on your old equipment and want to restore it in order to avoid having to reconfigure all of your equipment, download the TELUS Connect app and configure the name and password from your previous wireless network
Congratulations, you have completed the configuration and are now connected to your Wi-Fi network. To learn how to connect a mobile device like a tablet or smartphone to your wireless modem router, go to telus.com/InternetSupport.
