ok update:
So with the help and guidance of nabs, I called Telus again and explained the situation. We did the typical testings at speedtest.net and telus.com/tech.
With the cable hooked up directly from the modem to the desktop (and I didn't know there was that iMac option till my wife whipped out the cable!), it was reading about 13mbps download. With the cable unplugged (aka wireless), it was reading about 2mbps download. So telus rep and I were scratching our heads. I thought for sure he was going to attribute it to likely that my aircard has failed.. again.
As a final option, the Telus rep changed my router channel from "11" to "6" and that did it! Everything was back to normal again!
Youtube, vimeo... loads up fine! Speedtest.net shows 14mbps wirelessly!
ping: 13ms, download:13.11mbps, upload: 1.07mbps
Yes...we are back in business!
nabs, thanks for the tips and your help in all this.
