Hi All
I'm looking at replacement for the Wi-FI on the Hub one as it's not great in our house. We've started using more Wi-Fi devices upstairs so this has become more noticeable. I was looking at implementing a Mesh Wi-Fi system but ideally don't want to have to buy a new modem/router as well. Can any recommend anything based on their setup? My house is only 2 up 2 down however it was built around 1900 so very thick walls etc. I also would be happy to buy a more powerful router if that would cover the full house if someone could recommend one of them?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Fixed! Go to the fix.

I don't know the merits of this one @1rtomlinson but it may be worth a look while it's on at discount.

Thanks for the suggestions - decided to go with the TP-Link Deco M5's in the end based on reviews and a deal which eBay has on getting 20% off the price. They've not arrived yet but hopefully they should be what i'm looking for.

I'm also thinking of buying these, as my property also built around 1900 has very thick walls!. Can I ask what speeds you are getting, and are you using the 3 disk set? Thanks

Thanks, that's useful. Do you get full speeds throughout your property, or does it drop off?

Couple of questions - how do you switch off WiFi on the Plusnet hub?
Which port on the back of the plusnet hub do you stick the first M5 unit into?

You need to go your router homepage, normally 192.168.1.254 then in to settings, wireless and turn off the 2.4ghz and 5ghz wireless.
The lan cable from the deco goes in to one of the yellow lan ports on the back.
You should be then good to go.
Thanks

How did you turn off the wifi to the Hub One? I only seem to have an on/off switch or a WPS button.
