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.

Re: Rollout of the HUB5
Hub 5 delivered yesterday. Don't know if my order just slipped through the net but I previously had the hub 4.

Re: Rollout of the HUB5
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)
