just to let you know, you are supposed to call in for the upgrade to 6.0 max.

telus has stopped offering 1.5 since years ago, and customers who were on the 1.5 needed to call in to get upgrade to 3.0. this was last year. now 3.0 is extinct as well, and customers need to call in again to get the upgrade. you may need a new modem as well.
i suggest you call back and ask for the upgrade. just mention something like "i'm paying $40 a month and i am on the old plan. i like to be paying $35 now for this faster 6.0 plan"
