Re: Use Bt business smart hub at home
thank you
will i just have to use the same username login details from my current homehub and put that in the business hub?
currently on the business hub it set to : btbusinesshub@business.btclick.com
also will the hub still receive future updates and won’t write over the business hub modem mode settings?

Re: Use Bt business smart hub at home
yes you need to use the normal residential login bthomehub@btbroadband.com and any password
updates should be ok and automatic

Surely if you are using it in the modem only mode, then PPPoE authentication would be done on your own separate router?

No, the PPPoE username and password are entered on the Linksys. No credentials are required on the hub as a modem. If there is a setting on the hub for VLANid, set it to 101
