Re: Broadband

Only you can really decide that, 2 of the best Halo features are the 'keep connected promise' if you have a fault which results in a total loss of broadband, you'll get a 4G mini hub with unlimited data until the fault is fixed, the 2nd benefit is no out of contract increase, what you pay in the minimum term remains the same outside (not including annual price change)

Decide for yourself, the benefits are listed at www.bt.com/halo

Thanks for reply and is the smart hub 2 better than the smart hub?

Re: Broadband

very little difference but you need the SH2 for digital voice as it acts as dect base station.  a downside of SH2 is you cannot split the 2.4/5ghz networks as you can on the SH/6 which many find very useful

Re: Broadband

Would I get better wifi coverage? I’m thinking of my video doorbell.

Re: Broadband

No I don't think the WiFi on the SH2 is better than on your existing hub and may cause you 2.4ghz door bell problems with 2.4/5ghz networks with only one SSID
