Just went through the equipment on Shaw's website and I noticed they now have their new XB7 modem which has Wi-Fi capability and even has a 2.5 Gbps ethernet port. Considering that Telus currently offers a 1.5gbps plan that cant even reach full speed over Wi-Fi 5 (and im not even sure if the Wi-Fi hub even has Ethernet faster than 1gbps), is Telus going to be introducing a new Wi-Fi 6 hub soon? Or could the be waiting for Wi-Fi 6e to switch?
One thing I should also mention is that I recently received a free Telus Boost Wi-Fi starter pack rental after finding an offer on my Optik TV boxes. Does that potentially mean they are clearing out existing Boost Wi-Fi models for a newer model as well?
