I already have a BT Home Hub, what should I do?
Unplug it from the mains, then follow the leads and unplug them from your
computer (if not using wireless) and ADSL filter. Follow the
or the set-up insrtructions on page 11 to set up your new BT Home Hub and
reconnect your computer.
If using wireless, you'll need to set up your wireless connections again using
•
the security details for your new Hub. The set-up instructions in this guide will
show you how to do this.
If you use BT Broadband Talk, your existing talk number should be
•
automatically activated on your Hub shortly after it's connected to broadband.
You'll know this when the Phone light glows blue. If it doesn't glow blue within
a few hours, you can activate it yourself. Please go to
out how to do this.
If you're using BT Hub Phones, you'll need to pair these to your new Hub.

Please follow the instructions in your BT Hub Phone User Guide.
If you're a member of BT FON, simply opt-in again using your new Hub.

If you've received your new Hub as a replacement for a faulty one, please
•
return the faulty Hub using the returns envelope sent with the replacement.

Can I use an extension lead to connect my Hub to my phone socket?

Yes. We recommend that the extension lead is in good condition and is no longer
than ten metres. Using extension leads can affect broadband performance. To find
out about using ADSL filters with extension leads, please see 'Fitting filters – what
do I do?' on page 36.
