I read on ISPreview that BT are about to start trials of a new Smart Hub 2.
hmm, I wonder if Plusnet fibre users will be offered what will be the soon to be discontinued 'Smart Hub' next year ?
(EE customers are supplied with rebadged Smart Hub type B)

Interesting spec. SOGEA out of the box will support the BT plan to steadily remove copper from the network?
Superusers are not staff, but they do have a direct line of communication into the business in order to raise issues, concerns and feedback from the community.

Someone's not been honouring the NDA agreement 🙄
Edit: for clarification, I'm talking about the person who's spoken to ISPr, not anyone round these parts

If this becomes the new standard BT device then the Smarthub 6 will be considered obsolete.
Maybe this will result in it becoming the standard issue Plusnet offering, after of course, putting it into a white case with garish pink feet so that it looks suitably cheap and nasty.

I agree - Plusnet's decisions with the Hub One have baffled me, it really does reflect them as a 'cheap & nasty' undesirable brand...probably not their intention.
As a result my mum insists her hub must be hidden away from sight, which doesn't help wrt optimal location for WiFi coverage.
I'm a little more forgiving, my walls are white so it blends in a bit, but I've put white tape over the obnoxious pink branding - not ideal, but a compromise between aesthetics and practicality.
It's a real marketing 'own goal'. But maybe we're the weird tiny minority...probably not.
My mum's WiFi and taste requirements would really appreciate a new Plusnet Smart Hub 6 in a classier black/charcoal case with subtly small grey branding (if there has to be any branding at all!) and without the ridiculously oversized, overly bright led. If needs must, I'll buy her a BT one off ebay.

Go on, spoil her for Christmas. Recently I paid less that £20 for a new Business Smarthub 6. The light is not only shrouded but can be either dimmed or switched off completely. The Wifi is better too. Setting up instructions are here https://community.plus.net/t5/My-Router/Using-the-BT-Smarthub-6-on-a-Plusnet-Account/m-p/1587673#M85...
