New Yes, Better... In a Pig's Eye

Advantages: It looks nice, more subtle in most surroundings
Disadvantages: Signal, reliability, compatability

When this summer BT launched their new version 2 Home Hub in stylish black the world, well BT Internet users were fairly excited. Not only was the new hub in a much desired colour, it boasted better reliability and twice the transmission distance of the original hub, to highlight this distance BT launched a new series of adverts featuring My Family actor Kris Marshall (fresh from a very nasty accident) experiencing the pain of distance separating ...
...was able to connect my BT Vision box, Desktop Computer, Bluray player, and XBOX 360 directly to the hub via the Ethernet connections, and still enjoy the wonder of the wireless to one of three laptops in the house, as well as my iPod. This joy was soon over shadowed by a very dark cloud, more on this later.

The hub features the new version of the Hub Phone, with this you can set up a separate phone line (free providing you don't make ... more

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 ...

BT Home Hub - mediocore but not without its uses

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 ...

BT RUBBISH HOME HUB

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 ...

Nice but nothing special

Advantages: All in one
Disadvantages: Too pricey

...fitted and was surplus one BT home Hub, which he had previously received from his brother. Since it hadn't cost him anything he passed it on for the same price………zilch. They are very smart looking units being that it is basically a white box with some fancy bits on. It has an adjustable antenna in angle only and an array of pretty lights in its top right hand corner. These lights when illuminated green show that the said option is fully working. ...
...there are cheaper, and better options out there to do the same job. The only real advantage is that the BT Hub is an all in one, whereas most of the alternatives are not, so it is strictly a matter of preference. For me though it is definitely too pricey. ...

The BT Home Hub

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. ...

The BT Hub Phone 1010

Advantages: Colour Display, Caller display, stylish appearance, cheaper (with Home Hub)
Disadvantages: you only get it in one colour

BT Hub Phone is an ordinary cordless home phone. Except it is one of the best in that category. Its got a colour display (with many options), time & date display, few polyphonic ringtones,phone book that could store up to 50 entries and loudspeaker function. If you get the BT Home Hub to pair up with the Phone you can get cheaper call on land line and mobile. I have had the phone for some time now and I make all calls through the Hub Phone to save money. The Hub Phone's appearance is sleek and stylish unlike the other black-brick cordless phones. There are also no annoying aerials and the sound is perfect as long as you are with-in 200m of the Hub. With these options this cordless is almost a mobile phone. . ...

Black Nokia N95 8GB

Advantages: Great applications, superb memory + nice mp3 player!
Disadvantages: Battery life and size

For long journeys I seem to always end up playing Who Wants to be a Millionaire on the phone! The graphics are really good too! b) WiFi - We have a BT HomeHub which means I can lay in bed and chat on MSN on my phone! - Fantastic. Oh I can be really sad and check Facebook or whatever else I ...

Review of Nokia N95

Little White Devil!

Advantages: Great Features, easy to use, Awesome sound quality
Disadvantages: Not so good range (distance from Hub) Doesnt look so great

The BT Hub Phone is the best item ever released from BT (I wont talk about the company here, as this is a hige let down for this device). It works as an internet phone when logged on, but reverts to a normal land line phone when the internet connection is down. A number of options are available from the computer, including selection of ringer, so that when the landline number is called, the hub phone will ring, as well as all other phones, and visa versa for standard landline phones. Its colour screen is attractive, and its lack of features refreshing. All thats needed is a phone, not a game console and mp3 player, and this is what you get! The sound is brought bt digital technology, and it sounds just great, clear as a bell. Working from the BT Home Hub its a powerful companion in the communication world. Its handsfree ...
