Hi I've just re-installed my Plusnet Hub One router having been using a TP-Link router for a few years.
My Hub One is showing...
- The username of my account
- The serial number of the router
- The MAC address on the router (only first 6 characters are needed)
and factory reset once it has been added to the system.
Thanks in anticipation..
Fixed! Go to the fix.

Welcome to our community forums @D-Parkes
As far as I’m aware, unfortunately we won’t be able to update your router, due to how old the firmware is.
Taken from the post Here if a Hub One is running a firmware version older than 4.7.5.1.83.8.259.1.1, we’d have to look at options to replace the router, if you need the router running the latest firmware.
Are you having any issues with the router?

Hi Anoush, thanks for the update. My Hub One started to drop broadband access quite frequently. I tried to get a firmware update at the time but never managed to get one so I changed to a TP-Link router which has been very stable and I have been able to download firmware updates for it.
When I read on the community support forums that it was possible to get an upgrade I thought I would give it a try as the Hub One has Gigabit ethernet ports and the TP-Link has only 100Mbit and if I ever have problems with my broadband I would want to restore the Hub One as my broadband modem to simplify support.
I'm reluctant to leave the Hub One as my Firewall without a firmware upgrade as I would expect the old firmware to have a number of security flaws so if I can't get it upgraded I will have to go back to the TP-Link router.
Cheers Dave

Hi Dave, thanks for getting back to me.
Ah makes sense, no problem I'll be happy to arrange to send you another Hub One free of charge to replace the one you've got, however it might be worth calling our Customer Options Team on 0800 013 2632 as they may be able to post a Hub Two out to you, depending on your contract etc.
If you'd like me to order a replacement Hub One and/or Customer Options can't send you a Hub Two, let me know.

Thanks Gandalf, I called the Customer Options Team and talked to [CSA Removed]. I can get a Hub Two when I renew in a few months time and in the meantime he has sent out a replacement Hub One. Great service!
Cheers Dave
