New Hub Two router

janeybeans — Fri, 29 Mar 2024 09:46:14 GMT

Hi,

We currently have fibre broadband with a Hub One router. We're in the process of a full fibre order which has been delayed due to Openreach needing to do some work first.

My question is, the Hub Two router has arrived. Can I set this up now, in advance of the full fibre being connected? From what I could gather, pre-order, Hub Two works with 'normal' fibre too?

Thanks.

@janeybeans Yes, you can use the Hub2 with your current FTTC connection.

As advised by @jab1 you can but it might not have come with a DSL lead. Simply use the Hub 1 cable plugged in to the DSL socket, not the Ethernet cable that comes with the FTTP routers..

@janeybeans

Be aware that you need to login to the router admin page and change the WiFi password to that which you currently use - or change all your devices to the new p/w.
