Are there any differences between the versions of the business smart hubs.
I bid on an item on Ebay which was listed as Item Code: 088317 but I received a 088315
I want to use it on plusnet FTTC. Any differences worth worrying about?
Fixed! Go to the fix.

I believe any BT Smart Hub (6) version will work with FTTC and ADSL with plus net or BT
The Business BT Smart Hub (6) Version will also work but just allows you to alter some extra settings in the Home Hub Manager settings.
If you need FTTP then you need the hub version with the red sticker on the 4th port on the rear (These are unusual to see for sale on the For Sale websites but do pop up now and again )

Thanks. I had read those threads, but there doesn't seem to be a definitive answer.
Unfortunately the one I bought is shrink rapped so I can't open it to verify what it is.
Beneath the item code it says BTB EI/SI 1.0 (088315)
On the auction listing it shows :BTB EI FTTP 1.0 (but is a 088317)
Not sure what these mean but it could be that the item code on its own is not enough to determine whether it is FTTC or FTTP.
I think I am worrying over nothing as it will be a big improvement over the TGN router I currently use.

As I said in my Post
Any Version will work if needed just for FTTC .
If it is the FTTP version with red sticker on 4th Port and you want to hardwire then use ports 1 to 3.

Once set up the Smart Hub should automatically update firmware and security updates in time.
