Glad it's not just me, we're both on the same broadband tier as well.

Bummer! I'm on 200, XL TV or whatever it is now and normal phone, currently not in a contract and paying too much but don't like the stress of phoning up

Pity there isn't someone offering a professional bargaining service to get you the best deal. Now there's a thought for some enterprising individual.
:scratch:

Hub 5 delivered yesterday. Don't know if my order just slipped through the net but I previously had the hub 4.

I hope anyone who has one now lasts longer than mine did, mine died after 4 months, on a hub 4 now.

You went back to a Hub4 because you were unlucky and got a faulty Hub5?

No.

I was a 'selected by VM' early adopter who went from a Hub3 to a 5, and now onto a 4. (engineer had no 5's in his van as they didn't officially exist as an option at that time) I'm only on 200Mb anyway so no biggie and i use an extensive mesh system and leave it on modem mode anyway as VM wi-fi is so shockingly woesome.

The overall impression I had was it wasn't really fit for purpose at the time, and was being used as a beta tester as it died mysteriously at the 4 month mark that seems to bear out.

I'll care more about wi-fi 6 & 2.5 Gbp port when my broadband actually reaches those speeds (not anytime soon as I'm finding my 200 to be plenty fast enough with a family of 5 and some 60 odd smart connected devices (albeit no 4k ones yet)

I hope my experience is ok as my hub3 is rock solid.
