Using bt wholehome white discs

Pnesteve — Sat, 15 Nov 2025 15:22:58 GMT

Hi, I've just moved to PN from BT, I was led to believe that the white wholehome BT discs would work with the PN 2 router, however I can't seem to get them to work, I've tried various suggestions I've found but all dont work for me. I'm thinking I may need to buy a BT router or a different mesh system 🤔

I used the white whole home discs for 6 years with a hub 2 before upgrading earlier on this year - what issue are you having?

@Pnesteve Welcome to the Plusnet Community Fora.

You are plugging them into aone of the three LAN sockets, not the WAN one?

Thanks for replying, I've solved my issue, my problem is was plugging the first disc in to the router, then removing it to do next disc, but obviously now I see that the first disc must remain plugged in to the router to form the mesh. I was using a single black disc with the bt router and that was a stand alone disc, so that's where my confusion started 😀, its all good now, thanks again 👍
