If they provide you with equipment to be used in a household environment, that doesn't work in a household environment, then it is unfit for purpose. It appears that most people have no problems at all, but some do. Only last week someone on this forum said that VM had sent them a wifi router to use with their shub in modem mode, because they were having problems with wifi. So it seems like they are accepting that some people are having problems, and are trying to rectify it. If they don't rectify it then all you would have to do (as with many companies), is start quoting SOGA, and mentioning trading standards.
