I have just upgraded to smart Hub Pro 7
This was recommended by EE Home Tech to provide much better WiFi performance, specifically on distance.
It was explained that it has 8 antennas and is far superior in performance.
It is installed an up & running, first issue was it could not connect to WiFi extender Pro, it would pair alongside, but not connect when placed in position the old WiFi extender was. EE added another Extender alongside Hub to remain in Ethernet connection, providing ‘bridge/daisy-chain’ configuration.
I have now found, TV phones, iPads, keep dropping out of WiFi connection, unless I connect to a ‘compatible 2,4 GHz’ network ID. They were happy with auto 2.4/5. GHz on previous Home Hub 6
Is there anything I need to set or configure on the HomeHub 7 Pro, certainly not getting anywhere near the old hub performance, let alone one ‘significant improvement. Apart from enabling a ‘Compatible’ network noth8ng else changed.
