NOW Hub2 wifi is very poor, anyone know how I can setup and use my previous Plusnet Hub 2?

I have had the Now 2 router for 3 weeks and very dissapointed in the wifi coverage, I have seperated the 2.4 abd the 5GHz channels and logged everything onto 2.4 GHz but picture in bedroom upstairs 15ft away just freezes constantly same with our mobile phones, can I use my old Plusnet 2 router as that has good coverage

That’s your best chance of an answer at the moment.

Also consider cheaply sourcing a Sky SR203 router off eBay, as a direct replacement for the Now hub, but with markedly superior WiFi, they tell me.

Set a Payment PIN on your account so that no-one but you can buy memberships on it.
Check your bank accounts monthly for any other unexpected payments to Now.
That way you can at least nip them in the bud, while you and Now figure out whose fault they are.
