"Using a tablet or mobile can make things worse as browsers modify the display size to fit the device screen, this can be ignored by setting the browser to use 'Desktop site' but the text may become very small."
Looks fine on my mobile using Opera browser.

As far as I can tell, the router is OK.
I am still annoyed that a change was made to the security settings on my router without my knowledge and permission, especially as the HTTPS requirement is actually redundant.

I understand your frustrations, but ultimately plusnet own the Hub Two, they have a duty to keep it updated, both BT/EE Hubs have gone through a similar firmware update program.
I might suggest there should a mechanism to notify customers of planned Hub updates, but being in support for many years before retiring, sadly the majority of customers are unlikely going to read the notification.
If you prefer, you could consider using your own router. This will give you more control, with a highly configurable device to suit your needs.
Superusers are not staff, but they do have a direct line of communication into the business in order to raise issues, concerns and feedback from the community.

I still don't understand why accessing the router using https results in 15-30s of thumb twiddling before the home page appears.

Had Plusnet Hub Two Manager set as my home page. Now takes forever to load using Safari and have to enter passwords even just to look at Status or Devices. What is the point of the update except to irritate users?

I cannot comprehend why it takes 30-40 seconds to load a few bytes of data for the router home screen. There has to be an issue, but presumably nobody at Plusnet cares?

I am guessing it is timing out trying to request information from a "remote" location.
I had the pause, and tried using a possible domain name and now I do not get the delay.
When I look at the certificate I find these.
Not Critical
DNS Name: bthomehub.home
DNS Name: bthub.home
DNS Name: bthub
DNS Name: api.home
DNS Name: hub.home
IP Address: 192.168.1.254
I did try some of this on an old BT Hub 5 and it seems new to the Plusnet Hub 2.
