Business Hub 5 with Asus RT-AC87U

Hello

I am growing increasingly frustrated withthe hub's poor wifi conections.

I have the mentioned Asus router and wanted to know how I correctly set up the BT Hub to use this router for the wifi service.

I have tried to go through the asus set up, but it cannot connect to the BT connection through the BT Hub, times out.

Help

Glenn

Hi Glenn,

You need to replace the BT Hub Router with your own router. For this you need to get an ADSL router (or a VDSL if you are on fibre customer). I think you are trying to connect a cable router to an ADSL service.

I would also look into wireless access points. Depending on the structure of your house and how congested radio channels around you are you would be better to use a wireless access point from one of the switch ports to your access point.
