Telus With Airport? (ATTENTION CANADIANS!)
I want to get ADSL from TELUS (Western Canda Internet Service Provider) and I'm wondering if anyone has ADSL from TELUS and is using an Airport for their Ibook or PowerBook. Please tell me if you do and what slot card and airport model you have. Thanks a trillion!

Have had using it for over 6 months....No problem so far.
Jesus man, I came in here ready to flip out, thinking I was going to read something like "you'll no longer be able to use Airport with Telus DSL..."
Man. *phew*
Using it right now on an iBook with a new card and base station, no problems at all.
You'll just never know whether I'm at my desk posting, on the couch, or about to wipe my ass. I love it.

Using the same ADSL account. My iBook/Airport combination NEVER drops the connection.
The iMac, which connects wired to the router. Also works fine. But my G4, which wires the same way as the iMac keeps dropping connection
You get two IPs, which is nice, but they are dynamic. If you need a static IP you'll have to go with Shaw. The AirPort can, of course, distribute one IP over many computers.
Same to TELUS. You can get fixed IP if you are taking the business package.
But then, that's me supposing things. They have terabytes of log-data from the past few years telling them they can save money that way, so if it came down to it I'd bet on their judgement.
Delete the original ones, click "submit" and it does nothing. I always go downstairs, log on with my PC, and clear the old ones out, THEN I go in and set up the new one. Weird. I either do this, or use Virtual PC to do it.
The guys on the phone at Telus never believe me when I tell them this. <img src="confused.gif" border="0">
