I joined Plusnet in Aug/ September this year. On joining I was sent the Hub Zero Sagemcom 2704n Router. I have been getting very poor wifi signal since then. On looking into it I see that this router is very old and was getting poor reviews even in 2015. I'm surprised that this router was sent to a new customer in Aug 2020. It is only 2.4ghZ whereas the standard seems to be 2.4ghz and 5ghz. I see that some on here seem to have the latter.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Should I raise this with Plusnet direct? Thanks for any advice.

Plusnet supply a 2704N.Hub Zero with ADSL and 2 band Hub One with fibre, which is a similar vintage tweeked BT Home Hub 5A.
If you want a better budget hub that will work with ADSL and fibre go onto an auction site such as Ebay and get a BT Smarthub 6. These go for around £20. Setting instructions are here. https://community.plus.net/t5/My-Router/Using-the-BT-Smarthub-6-on-a-Plusnet-Account/m-p/1587673#M85...

Thanks. I still have my EE router - a Bright Box 1 (R). Worth trying to see if this is any better?

You could try but I suspect that it's locked to EE. It also looks to be old technology.
You might also be able to turn it into a Wireless Access Point and connect it to your Plusnet hub and use its wireless instead.
Personally I would pay my £20 ish and move on.
