EE SmartWifi Discs not working with Virgin Hub 3

Hi Guys

 

I have 2 EE Smartwifi discs which now belong to me.

I am trying to get these connected to the Virgin Media Hub 3 - but not working. I am being passed between EE and Virgin!

 

As this is my own equipment for home wifi, surely I should be able to connect to any new broadband router - What do i need to do?

 

Who are these manufactured by?

Is there any block EE insert into their discs so they only work with EE? 

 

Thanks in advance!

@GF10  Any Wi-Fi repeaters will work.   The smart disk isn’t a Wi-Fi repeater.  

If it was me I would be looking at power lines with a Wi-Fi output on them.   

 Power lines use your home internal electrical wiring to push a signal around your home and have an an adapter at each end one to push out and one to receive and you can have more than one to receive in your home.  

something like THIS perhaps
