Hi @Anonymous User 

 

Have you gone into My Account whilst logged in on here and tried changing your Broadband Buddy Settings ?

 

Where the default setting is based on PG 13 and may block these websites.

 

If that doesn't work and your are losing wifi performance or wifi drop outs on your NowTV Hub 2 Router, then maybe try these settings below.

 

Your Hub Two is dual-band (2.4GHz and 5 GHz). Splitting these bands to create 2 different Wi-Fi networks can help to improve the speed to your devices. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Open your web browser and enter "192.168.0.1” in the address bar.
  2. Select Maintenance and enter “admin” and “nowtv” as the username and password.
  3. Select Wireless and then 2.4 GHz Wireless Settings
  4. Scroll down to “Wireless Access Point” and uncheck Synchronise 2.4GHz and 5GHz Settings.
  5. In the ‘Name (SSID)’ box, Change the network name to distinguish it from the current network (e.g. add “_2.4G” to the current name). Select Apply.
  6. Check the network name has been updated, and then select 5GHz Wireless Settings.
  7. To be able to see easily which network is which on your devices, change the ‘Name (SSID)’ here too (e.g. add “_5G” to the current name). Select Apply.
  8. That’s it. Select Logout at the top of the screen to exit.

In my setup 2.4GHz wifi works better for me in my Home environment than 5GHz, where i have set all my devices  for 2.4GHz.

 

Also a few users have reported random wifi drop outs on their phones using the NowTV Hub 2 Router.

 

Where you could try accessing the Hub 2 Router webpage settings (following steps 1 & 2 above and instead of selecting the Maintenance Tab, select the Advanced Tab), then select the LAN IP Setup tab below it, then disable the IPV 6 on Lan side by unticking the box and clicking the green Apply Button towards the bottom of the screen.

 

The disable of the IPV6 over Lan seemed to help people who have reported wifi random dropouts on their phone and other devices using the NowTV Hub 2.

 

Apart from that phone the NowTV Broadband Team for further assistance & help.

How to phone customer services though?  I cannot find a number anywhere and livechat doesnt work either.

Hii had this issue ( BB and phone line dropping out)

I disabled IPV 6, and seems to have fixed it.

Thank you @schnapps
