Two questions:

1. Why? There are members of this forum who will tell you that this is not a good modem/router.

2. Which service are you on, ADSL, FTTC or FTTP?

1. some of those forums are quite old and the firmware updates may have fixed the issues plus i needed a router with QOS as the bt smart hub 2 doesn't have it

2. I'm on FTTC

thanks

Firmware updates don't change the fact that the underlying chipset is poor.
