If they have to do anything, like drill from the external Omnibox into a new room, they'll charge £99.

To get the AE set up, I strongly recommend that you put the hub into modem mode (from yhr menu after login). They key setting in the AE is to set it's mode to DHCP. You won't need to change anything else. Then you'd connect it to the bottom Ethernet port of the hub. Switch then both off. Switch the AE on first and let it settle for a minute. Turn the hub on and it will negotiate with the AE and supply an IP address.

The Powerline would attach to the AE as would the V6. If you run out of Ethernet ports, you could buy a small switch that would add 8 more.
