Can I use a different router than the one Plusnet give you? I still have the Sky Hub which gave a brilliant signal in other rooms. Could I use this Hub? If so could someone tell me how to do it. Please.
many thanks in advance

One idea you could consider is to switch off the wireless on the Plusnet router and then use the sky hub as a wireless access point by disabling DHCP on the hub, and then wiring it to the Plusnet router.

Quote from: DomS Also try setting a different wireless channel on the router - my wireless speeds were terrible until I changed the channel.
Thanks for your reply. How would I change the channel on my router

Quote from: zZz The Sky SR101 and SR102 hubs are likely to be locked to Sky so won't work with any other ISP.

Thanks for your reply. How would I use the hub as an access point. I am new to this.
