Changing from wired only router to Plusnet Hub Two

Since joining Plusnet in 2009 I've used a wired only router (D-Link) with 4 ethernet sockets. I now have a wireless device and Plusnet have sent me a Plusnet Hub Two router. If I install this new router instead of my wired only router, will Plusnet server prevent me from reconnecting the old wired only router to Plusnet broadband should the need ever arise?

@davidheaf in a word, no! , providing you don't try to connect both at the same time. However should you wish to revert to wired only, you can always temporarily disable wireless on the Hub 2 via the gui.

Note that the Hub 2 only has 3 wired LAN ports though.
