Number of Ee wifi discs per router

Mbull · ‎02-11-2022

Hi - I have a new ee smart hub router and am buying the ee wifi discs from eBay / Gumtree rather than paying the £10 per month (it says you can get up to 3 with this but I think that is just the maximum for that package). How many ee wifi discs can I add to the mesh network - I think it might be 6 or 8? I have 3 working well at the moment but have a large house. Many thanks, Mike.

@Mbull you can purchase these outright from EE, they are £75 each see HERE

it might be worth trying a 2nd hand one as there is no information I can find on how many you can use it’s just about EE will send you 3 if required.

You will note that the page @Chris_B links states:

NOTE - You need to have an EE Smart Router for this product to function.

That's not the same as the Smart Hub.

Sorry - should make myself clear - I have the new ee router and already have 3 ee wifi discs set up with it and working well - got from eBay for approx £35 each. I just want to know what is the maximum number of we wifi discs I can connect into the mesh network - thanks

Just to confirm that the number is at least 6 discs for the smart router (white one) and they work well in series. Very pleased.
