Wifi 7 hub ?

[Kodikid]

Old news...that was the intention but was abandoned a few months back.  BT will continue selling broadband.  Odd though why they persist with the industry lagging wifi 5 SH2 when they could easily rebrand both the EE 6/7 router's

Tell that to the guy that told me I can't renew on bt and have to go to EE.

@Gary_M You do NOT have to move to EE

In fact, I've been watching the EE forum for a couple of years now, (under a different name).  All is not well, I would say.  Very high volume of unhappy people posting.  (And that's allowing for the fact that a lot of people only post when they want to moan).

(The EE router comes in for a fair bit of stick as well).

I'm guessing that "guy"  was from customer services.  Historically they are at worst deceitful but mostly they are the last to know of any changes. 

WSH I was also put off changing my SH2 due to the relentless negatively towards the EE wifi 6 router but I chanced it and bought one from Ebay. It's literally perfect giving me over my 500mbps and strong signal all over the house/garden.

Fair enough.  I'm on a lot of forums, so I must admit I can get a bit confused at times.  I'm not sure if it was the EE router or Sky's latest that can only be configured via a phone app.  I will say, that's a big negative in my view.

Well it is all getting very confusing now, I think its prudent to stay with BT for now until things calm down a bit, the service is perfectly good anyway, I only wanted to switch if it was better.

Just need BT to bring out a new super fast hub

The new CEO had scuppered that ethos and had said that residential customer can stay with BT

"Tell that to the guy that told me I can't renew on bt and have to go to EE."

If that guy was a BT telephone agent, he'll be on commission to move you to EE and sell you a more expensive deal. So he'll say anything to persuade you to move.
