Superhub version?

[sea2dog]

How do I find out which version of the BT hub I have?

I called BT earlier about something else and the guy on the phone said that he would send me an updated hub, I'm sure he said I had bt hub 1 and he would send hub version 2.

I find it strange as I thought that version 2 had already been upgraded.

Apparently Smart2 Hub7 is the latest, thanks for the link, I'll now take a look.

Told they send me the Hub 7, do I need to use it if I'm happy with the hub I'm currently using?

don't change if existing working ok   not broke don't fix it

never heard of hub 7

[gg30340]

There is no hub 7 or hub 6 for that matter. After the Homehub 5 they became known as Smarthubs.

I agree that if it ain't broken don't fix it applies. Just leave your set up the way it is.

They are telling me it is a necessity for FTTP customers to change.

When it arrives I'll just refuse it.

If you are switching to FTTP then you need hub with WAN outlet so you may need to change as standard hub will not work 

[sea2dog]

Not switching to FTTP as I'm already on FTTP.
