I have an EE Smart Hub SH31B and have had no end of issues with it.
I have three android devices two Tablets and a phone none of which can access the internet via the hub
All will connect to the Hub but not the internet
All I get is "cannot provide secure connection" or ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR
Having spent hours on the phone to EE support, had three EE engineers around and OpenReach check the line
Nothing seems to work
Any suggestions

@HughPB Do you have any devices that have managed to connect and get out, have you also tried the compatible network feature. Take it that you do not have any Ethernet connected devices to eliminate the hub is causing you the issue.

I think you'll find the router is set to Wireless Mode = WiFi6 and Security Type = WPA3 by default. Your device mayn't cope with that. Change the router settings down to WiFi5 and/or WPA2.
