BT Hybrid

Not happy at all with the hybrid device as it only connects to the BT HUB and I turned off the Wifi on that as it was so unstable and the disks that were sent out did not cover the granny annex at all.   I tried to upgrade without it but got stung for £3.00 a month more and charged £11.00 delivery fee.  BT Hybrid is not worth it and does not play with a mesh set up at all, unless anybody knows away to get it connected to Deco XE75 mesh wireless setup?.   Very poor show BT.   

 

Also I have connections to all four sockets on the BT HUB2 so I cant use any of them and I am not buying a switch just to connec this piece of rubbish.

Re: BT Hybrid

Yeah the Hybrid connect does need to link to your SH2 but it will also work with a mesh network as long as the mesh is set up as an access point with the SH2 still doing the routing. The speeds on a hybrid connect aren't amazing and depend on the 4g signal you get. It's a way to give you some connectivity if there's an issue on the line but it won't be the same as your actual BB connection in either speed or bandwidth.

EDIT: also the Hybrid Connect doesn't need an ethernet connection all the time. If you switch the hub wifi back on you could connect just the hybrid connect to it and leave everything else connected to your mesh system
