Thanks for that link. Covers pretty much everything I wanted to know. I suppose that Wi-Fi functionality depends very much on local conditions but presumably better than the Hub One.
FWIW - I've recently upgraded to Full Fibre at 500mb/s. So I wanted to make sure that my home network could take advantage of the new increase in speed. And I've gone down the router, Access Point (AP), mesh, etc. rabbit holes. And, as mentioned elsewhere, a lot of what is good for one home network may not be as good for another home network. You also have to take into consideration the devices in your home. For example, if all devices use the 2.4gHz band, then the 5 and newer 6 gHz bands won't give you any advantage (unless we're talking AP<->router or mesh connections).
Also, for my home network, I've found the Hub Two that Plusnet provide with the Full Fibre connection is perfectly adequate for my home network. I'm seeing speeds on 2-300+ mb/s on my 5gHz devices throughout my house. I'm not sure if this can be tweaked further? But it certainly exceeds the 30 mb/s line speed I had for FTTC. The only but I'd add is that the Hub Two isn't WiFi 6/6E compatible. So, if you want to achieve 6/6E speeds/support then you'll need to add an AP, or change the router. Fortunately, I have a WiFi 6 AP already. Unfortunately, I don't have any WiFi 6/6E compatible devices (lol).
