@clive_p  Did you ask EE to send you those adapters, or did they just send them anyway?

The fritzbox is more accommodating

It believe it has "WPA2 + WPA3" transition mode or a standalone "WPA2" encryption as options

Recent EE hub fw has aligned it with their superhub and by default only supports wpa3 connections. The fw has removed wpa2/wp3 transition option.

To allow wpa2 devices to connect to router you apparantly have to enable compatible wifi setting. This is a 3rd wifi running over 2.4Ghz only but seperate to the default 2.4g and 5g wifi networks that only allow wpa3.

However, the comment in other thread was that compatible wifi still doesnt work in all cases due to something to do with wifi 6 but i dont know what that could be.

I do recall though a wireless N router where you could disable b/g devices connecting so whilst that was optional it does show that routers can exclude devices based on their wifi standard

Fair enough, @njay .That does appear to be rather 'customer unfriendly', but in line with standard BT practice,

I shall now exit stage left, on this subject, at least.

@clive_p  Have you tried using a USB WI-FI dongle that supports WI-FI 6 & WPA3?

WiFi 6 AX900 USB Wifi Adapter for PC, WiFi Dongle Dual Band 5GHz & 2.4GHz 600Mbps, High-Speed Wirele...

I know this particular one doesn't get good reviews, but at least they are available.

I can concur that an old Windows 10 PC (upgraded from Windows 7) would not connect to EE's router after having worked fine with a Plusnet Hub Two.
