BT SMART HUB 2 Firmware 026.03.01826

[NER]

so hub has just updated to this anyone know what this firmware brings to the party?

[Ribblelancs]

Just got this firmware update yesterday, out of the blue...?

I'm on fttc., and on a waiting list for fttp. Existing hub has a digital voice port  which is taped off.

The biggest visible change on the HomeHub pc dashboard  is an option for future use with fttp.

[NER]

not seeing anything new had the phone button on the dashboard b4

[Ribblelancs]

Then presumably you are already on fttp?

Have not noticed the fttp option before....In fact have been told that a new Smart Hub 2 will be required for fttp". (Seems that there are 2 Smart Hub 2 versions in use). If so, why does the fttp option show?  Or have I been misinformed?

Will check again with BT.

There are definitely 2 versions of SH2. FTTC version with 4 LAN ports and FTTP version with 3 LAN ports and 1 WAN port. My firmware hasn't updated yet, still on v0.24.04.11017

Hi have this version... FTTP version with 3 LAN ports and 1 WAN port.

Like @Ribblelancs  my firmware has updated and now showing FTTP in advanced settings then information

[Ribblelancs]

@licquorice ,

This needs looking in to. It’s still not clear re: what the new firmware does.

My Hub has 4 LAN ports. So why is the fttp status now shown in the information display? ....as pointed out by self and @imjolly 

It was not there on the previous issue.

Are the Smart Hubs 2 type A and B, being upgraded? Seems pointless issuing new firmware for type A and B, if only one version is fttp compatible.

[NER]

so in addition to this new option.. 

everything seems to be running faster now

I’m confused, there must be 2 SH2’s. Someone reported v0.26.03.01286-BT firmware the other day.

My SH2 has Red Wan port and I have FTTP and the firmware is at v0.24 ....
