I was using a Hub 3 in Modem mode, can't say I can notice any difference using Modem mode between Hub 3 and Hub 5.

OK, I’m a bit confused "Can't wait to ditch VM for everything” - fine, but then "just waiting for February then I'll decide”. So are you dumping them (which originally you seemed to can’t wait for), or are you still open to decide?

Or is this some oddball attempt to see if you can’t score a better deal? Fair enough, although I doubt that VM monitor this forum, so I expect you might be out of luck.

Anyway today I decided not to wait and ordered Zen FTTP, when that's up and running I'll ditch VM for everything and my TV license and rely solely on my IPTV saving me a fortune.

Nothing Oddball about that.

Good choice with Zen, they're not the cheapest but in my experience very reliable, better kit and and knock VM out of the park with their customer service.
What speed have you gone for, you'll get a Fritzbox router up to 900 mb then the Eero Pro 6 for speeds above that.

Their top package in my area Full Fibre 900, I'm just hoping the order goes through ok as I was told it had initially failed so they have resubmitted it and I should hear more today.

Good luck with it, at least they're relatively easy to contact if something goes wrong.

To be honest, it's something I would not have noticed in "real use", but it does show up on the BQM.
If I had to guess, I'd put the difference down to the Hub's chipsets?
