Bonded line

Dunt — Tue, 30 Aug 2016 19:06:41 GMT

I have a home hub 3 on a bonded line. Rural area. Get max 2 mb download and erratic wifi within home.
Can I upgrade to a BT Homehub 5 to give improved service bearing in mind that it is a 2wire bonded line
The box on the wall presently has an ads line (grey wire) connected to the Hub3 and another wire from the wall box
going into an Openreach box.
Any help appreciated.

When you say Bonded line what do you mean?? You cant get bonding from BT can you?? I do know the 2Wire routers thought and they are crap. If i was you ring BT and see if you can blag a Home hub 6 for free? If not then buy your own router and bridge the 2wire to it.

There are 2 companies that offer bonded broadband that i know of:-

https://evolving.net.uk

http://sharedband.com/

They aint cheap though, you need 2 or more ADSL or FTTC connections. The phone lines rental, and then they charge for the service per month and sharedband uses data caps.

one of these would be great,

But they aint cheeap but worth every penny.
