Ugh, telus "high speed" reminded me of dial up... We were lucky to get 500k/s, went around in circles with telus for months on it - finally we went to the full shaw package to have a reasonable speed...

I had a problem with my Telus speed too a while back, so I phoned and complained. They walked me through a speed test and it came back LOW, so he pushed a few buttons on his computer at his end and whala.....WAY faster for me after that.

Phone and complain!!!!
