I've read previous posts about this but I don't want to do anything that reduces the speed a 3 of us are now working from home so we need it to be fast & reliable. It appears the fault is recognised & the result of supplying cheap routers. Has Plusnet upgraded its routers yet? I've tried phoning plusnet but finding it impossible to get through. Any help welcome please. Thanks

There is no new replacement for the Hub One. If you ring in they will tell you that the noise is 'within limits' and probably suggest that you buy a new one for an outrageous £99.
A better solution would be to buy a BT Smarthub for about £20 from an auction site such as Ebay. They have better performance and are silent. Setting instructions are here https://community.plus.net/t5/My-Router/Using-the-BT-Smarthub-6-on-a-Plusnet-Account/m-p/1587673#M85...

Both work fine. With the Business version you have more control options like you can select DNS servers rather than use Plusnet’s.
