I can honestly say this new power hub is the worst piece of kit ever i have used in all my years of wifi.
They have cut the ability to split 2.4 and 5 ghz bands and also we selection because they think compatability mode allows connections of every piece of kit you have, think again it is useless.
Your existing repeaters, printers do not connect , yet they will connect to BT, SKY, Virgin hubs no problem .
The previous Intelligent router was much better although it did not have wifi6, but who actually needs that anyway? Because you split the wifi bands and set up your equipment to connect to 2.4ghz independently.
Also the Power hub does not allow casting on to for example a smart TV, all my other routers did.
It is a pointless exercise contacting help desk , hours spent re booting is another farce.
Point is Vodafone have you signing for 2 years , make sure you quit before the 14 day return period is over.

Hi all further to my dissappointments with the new Power Hub i have yesterday shut it down and re activated the previous Intelligent Hub. This hub has far more easy connectivity with all your kit , older printers, extenders, etc , the power hub even in compatibility mode is basically ineffective as many members have reported. Despite it is not wifi6 i still get the contracted speed in my case 500mbps from 5g and it makes no difference i am sure to the average household.
The Power Hub has obviusly not been developed properly , but my feelings are all they have to do is allow the 2.4 and 5ghz bands to be split as per the Intelligent router, which is obviusly a good name for it!!!!!
