Hello,

I have just has Ultrafast 300 Upgrade installed at Home but Business one.  No-one told me about G fast etc..  beforehand....

Can anyone recommend an alternative to the Gfast Modem and HUB6 combintaion for G Fast.  Looks like for Business they are separate but for REsidential they are all in one(or that's what the BT eng. said?).  I would like 1 box with at least 4 ports preferably 5 so 1 for the WAN and then 4 ports.  I am now down a Port!

Thanks

Hi there,

You can add any make of gigabit switch to give you more ports if that's what you're after

Thanks

Problem there is same as me you go from one box on a tiny shelf with 2 sockets to 3 boxes on a Tiny shelf and now needing an extension lead/multi-adapter - a real real pain!!  If you also like me use BT Whole Home Wifi then the number of Power outlets is silly!!

Also, when i had mine done the only viable 1 box solution is this - it is really difficult to find a Gfast compatible unit

I did actually get one but it was secondhand and faulty and never actually tried it.  I am waiting for the replacmement...
