I have spent countless hour trying everything, reading every online post I can find and using every configuration possible with no luck. I figure it might be time to change modems, I would like to get something that works with Telus internet, and is Apex friendly so I can enjoy the benefit on online access. Any suggestions?

Call telus, tell them you want a Speedtouch modem instead of the 2wire or seimens.

then get a linksys wrt310N or higher

even if you get just a new router, the telus 2wire or seimens will not allow a linksys router to be on the same network, due to both using the same ip set (192.168.1.xxx)
you will see all pcs on your network, but have no internet access.

once you get the speedtouch, and linksys, then just a simple port forward application setting and your good to go.

just did the same thing for my profilux 3 and iphone app

Woohoo!!! I finally got it all configured and working! I accessed my controller with my iPhone no problem. Thanks to my buddy Smudge, I was fixed up with a new Speedtouch 516 and a Linksys WRT54G. Thanks guys for all your technical help, especially Snaz, it was just the advice I needed. Curt from Neptune is going to Telnet the Apex and get it tweaked so I don't have this sensitivity problem.

Glad it all worked out.

I spoke with Curt from Neptune today, he logged into my Apex and fixed it, quite impressive. All is good!

Can you tell us what Curt fixed? You mentioned something about sensitivity? Is this something we should all be on the look out for? Please feel free to PM me if you would rather not post the details.
