Is there anyway for forced a firmware install for example firmware download and TFTP? All also know that for example&nbsp; the Technicolours (yes I am that old) had protected firmware bank that could be forced, does the Home Hub 2 has something similar? I just want use it as&nbsp; wifi access point but don't trust it because of previous issues...</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> Sat, 27 Jan 2024 18:39:30 GMT japiewie 2024-01-27T18:39:30Z https://community.plus.net/t5/My-Router/Forced-Firmware-on-Plusnet-Hub-Two-Manager/m-p/1955549#M37610 <P>I had some DHCP, routing issues and other loss of IPs last week on my <SPAN>Plusnet Hub Two.
