It is more nuanced then that. Telus router are underpowered, so under heavy load it will not be able to handle higher traffic like better routers can.

Telcomm companies have costs in mind for all these, if the free home routers get saturated, they don't need that much bandwidth if all hops are running at full efficiency.

The question is similar to asking if an apartment dweller will get better WiFi if the suite next to him is vacant.
