... WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE? The Home Hub is white, very sleek and stylish and looks quite like Apple equipment, until you see the little coloured world that is the BT logo now. DIMENSIONS 6.5cm (d) x 19.4cm (w) 23cm (h) Its quite slender width-ways, and not very heavy at all, ... Read review

standard telephone plugged into  the phone socket
on your Hub, this will automatically use your
standard  telephone line. You'll know this because
the dial tone will be normal and  not the

Review of BT Home Hub by phoenixgreen

Advantages: Wireless, its wonderful! Looks syoopa too!!!
Disadvantages: price - notg cheap, but you get it free with upgrades and first time orders!

Bt Total Broadband Equipment - Home Hub Review I've had Bt Broadband for a long time now, and when the new hub equiptment came out I jumped at the chance of upgrading my connection system. I'm not an overly technical person, so this is not an overly technical review, but I hope it helps! Bt Total Broadband comes with free equipment if you order it online - and with Option 2 this means a Home Hub, and with Option 3, you get the Home Hub, plus a ...
...coloured world that is the BT logo now. DIMENSIONS 6.5cm (d) x 19.4cm (w) 23cm (h) Its quite slender width-ways, and not very heavy at all, but tall, so you have to think about where it will go to be out of the way. Compared with my old router ( a BT Voyager 205) its about twice the size, but it does a much better job so I don't hold that against it!!! The Hub's ports are hidden away at the back, behind a panel that sort of flips outwards to ... Read review

BT Home Hub - mediocore but not without its uses
Review of BT Home Hub by arry2007uk

Advantages: It works!
Disadvantages: Cheaply made but expensive to buy, can get free from BT

The BT Home Hub is a Wireless Broadband Router from British Telecom. It's IEEE 802.11b standard (best known under its marketing name WiFi) and features compatibiliy with a wide range of other WiFi devices. Though not the first of BT's broadband devices it does happen to significantly mark the provider's departure from traditional telecommunications and towards a modern media and internet communication. The Hub connects using the standard ADSL connection ...
...a fantastic essential to the BT Fusion package and also the VoD (Video on Demand) service available at the present. The BT Home Hub is free for new customers, free to upgrading customers and can also be bought online from a wide variety of web retailers (just don't buy it from BT's online store - they'd charge you your first born child if they could). So what soes the consumer/user get with their BT Home Hub package? Well if I'm honest it's pretty ... Read review

BT RUBBISH HOME HUB
Review of BT Home Hub by tmlfc1

Advantages: PRETTY FLASHING LIGHTS
Disadvantages: CONSTANT BREAKDOWN

I had a BT line installed purely to get broadband after many years of dial up modems and slow downloads.My cable phone was two years away from installing such equipment within my postcode so as you can imagine i was rather excited when the phone line was put in.I then received my box and was like a kid at christmas. The Product...... I had signed up with BT on a minimum contract of 12 months which i thought was reasonable and had chosen the option ...
...connected i was told by BT that my broadband speed would be based on how far i was from the server and it would then be set after two weeks to a maximum level.I thought i would do a speed test on a site i was recommended so put in the url and low and behold i had no connection.A little box popped up telling me a Lan cable had been unplugged.Damned if i had touched anything.I did a network connection check and it was all good so i had a look at the ...

The BT Home Hub
Review of BT Home Hub by yelliat

Advantages: Its free with some packages.
Disadvantages: It is abysmal.

...- its only usable with BT Broaband, unless you read around on the internet and spend ages trying to mess with it, making it pretty useless to most people. It does however come with a 'hub phone' in some cases. Retailing around £79.99, you might think these were good. No, they are not. The calls are generally more expensive than a standard BT corded line, and the internet call quality is appalling. If, instead, you want to use them for landline ...
...use when a different router is used, and the bloat software that accompanies the router is absolutely useless and very annoying. Instead of "This page cannot be displayed" you have the honours of seeing BT's "The BT HOME HUB cannot display our page". Do NOT buy under any circumstances. ... Read review

Bt Future
Review of BT Home Hub by kimberley1986

Advantages: Wireless
Disadvantages: Sometimes cuts out

We got the BT Home Hub when we moved in and it is an OK product. I find that with it being wireless internet or used with a lan cable is a great option to have, as it is wireless you have the internet throughtout the house in all room's to use your laptop or pc with. It has automatic updates to give the best optimum output for the internet at the present time of using it. It is great for connect alot of devices to the wireless hub, computer, laptop, ...
...have found a few times that if you leave the internet on and go out for a few hour's and come back the internet will have gone off so you have to restart the computer or take out and re enter the lan cable to get the internet back up and running. The added firewall is intresting as you dont have to download a firewall yourself. The good thing is that it can back up your files incase of eraser or haveing to clear the hard drive. The speed of the hub ... Read review
