Is it possible for a router to have coil whine? I can hear this really high pitch noise coming from my router, I read somewhere that a dab of hot glue on the coil can stop this. Would that work?

It's more than likely a capacitor. You may want to think of replacing the router.

Yeah it's a pos anyway, the really crappy thing is with our ISP they won't work with third party routers so I'm stuck with there crappy hardware.

I don't understand. You say this is a third party product and then you say it's theirs? It it is theirs then they are obligated to give you a new router. Do you lease it?
A lot of ISP's do that these days. Charge you $3-5 a month to rent a router/modem combo. AT&T has us do that, and they replaced it no charge when the last one started going bad.
There's still time to go Cox bro
I'm actually going to talk to my Dad about bumping our AT&T speed, was thinking about that yesterday. Pretty sure we can get like.... 18 here now. Maybe even 24!

We "rent to own" throughout the contract, we can only use the routers they provide, I can't go buy a nice router and bridge it with there's, they use to allow but they don't anymore.

Which Telus modem do you have? A brief lookaround on their support forums suggests bridge mode still works.

Well I'll be damned, thanks, I'll have to go get a new router and try this, still doesn't help with the whine though.
