With Telus you can’t go over gigabit with the full sized Nokia ONT, only SFP ONT, both are by Nokia. The T3200 also isn’t capable of over about 1.2GB. You either need the TWH or BoostV2

Yeah, I have gigabit, so it's fine. No plans to upgrade for the next little bit.
I pulled just a bit over 900 symmetrical last time I checked, but all the computers in my house are wireless clients so it doesn't actually matter too much. My main desktop pulls around 650/550 with WiFi 6. I just wanted Optik TV working from my man cave with pfSense.

One consideration I forgot to mention is I need to be able to have a guest wireless network of some kind. I want to keep my work laptop isolated from the rest of the network.
edit: I forgot I had 5GHz as well, I swapped to that and it works fine. So I'm going to assume the 2.4GHz radio is dying.

Any single wireless router should be good enough. I saw someone share this on RFD earlier today.

For $60, it should be a pretty decent upgrade. You'll get 802.11ac.
If you want to spend more money and your network speeds at home can take advantage of it, a WiFi 6 compatible router might be worth it.
