@siljrath   Welcome to the forum 

Its a Sagem 2704n. It has four 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports compatible with CAT 5 cables. You can switch the wireless off or just leave it on.

If it’s a Hub one then it’s a  BT Home Hub 5a with modified firmware. These have dual band wireless and four 1000/100/10 Mbps Ethernet ports suitable for your CAT 5 cables. Again you can switch off either one or both Wireless bands should you choose to do so

Aye, we retired the Hub Zero on the 22nd June. We've been sending Hub Ones for ADSL & Fibre connections since then. 

From 31st October 2022, I no longer have a regular presence here as I’ve moved on to a new role.
