Just got FTTP installed yesterday, and using the supplied Smart Hub 2.
We went for the 910 / 110 package, speed tests are showing 700 / 50. Not quite there but still stupidly fast!
As the new hub doesn't allow the 5ghz and 2.4ghz WiFi networks to be split, I am using the old hub as a 2.4ghz access point. I also have a separate 5ghz AP that is just used for the server on the top floor, it works well at 877 to 1000 connection speeds, and saved having to run a cable up to the top of a three storey house.
I am just wondering whether I should be considering investing in a third party router to better compliment my new broadband package, or is the Smart Hub 2 good enough?
The Openreach Engineer who did the install planted the thought that to get the full 910 speed I might need a better router, but didn't recommend one.
