I have Broadband supply via very old unreliable copper cable which gives me speeds of well under 20Mbps. Recently BT supplied a wifi mini hub again, on a temporary basis. But only while the wired connection was repaired.
The difference was significant achieving over 40Mbps.
Has anybody had the same problem?
And what was the outcome?
With BT allowing me to use wifi mini hub instead of a very old copper supply wire. At least 50 year old. No chance of fibre as I live outside a village.
Solved! Go to Solution.

many lines are as old as yours and work with no problems if you dial 17070 option 2 your line should be silent and best with corded phone

yes if quiet line test was as it's name suggests quiet/silent then your phone line is good and should not cause broadband problems

BT sell the mini hubs but they don't have unlimited usage, so if you're a heavy user this option might not benefit you.

Try copying the link without the https://, if you use the www.bt part onwards the page loads ok, possibly the forum formatting.
