Hi all, just a quick query re some techie stuff I am not totally in the know about.
I currently pay £43 a month for VM 350MB broadband. I have recently signed up to O2 and have just come off a WhatsApp chat with VM support to get my Volt benefits applied - they are not showing on my account yet but I am hopeful they have done what they said they would do and upgraded me to 500MB free of charge.
My question really is around the speed and best setup for this.
I currently have a Superhub 3, I have wifi turned off on this and have a Tenda mesh system in place which seems to work well in terms of coverage - the devices I have are the Tenda Nova MW6-3 model.
Like all of you, I have loads of devices in the house, all connect fine but I am curious about speeds. Apologies if these are some really basic questions!

- Do I need a newer SuperHub? During the WhatsApp chat they said an engineer was booked to come next week to check the hub and replace if needed.
- Do the Tenda wifi devices I have restrict the speed I should be getting in anyway?
- I currently have a PCIe wifi card in my PC - the model is (Archer T5E | AC1200 Wi-Fi Bluetooth 4.2 PCIe Adapter | TP-Link United Kingdom) - will this in anyway be restricting the speed I get?
