Besides - don't BT now provide the BT Home Hub? It uses this wonderful 1970's technology called Ethernet.
Is that the one that comes loaded up to be a BT Openzone hotspot as well, yes providing pay for access to the internet using your bandwidth and electricity to extend BT's network (though at least not your traffic allowance as far as I can tell) whilst also occupying yet another channel on the already congested wifi spectrum.
The same one that regardless of what you do with the admin password BT always have a back door into ?
At least the home hubs have a slightly less insane firewall configuration interface than the 2-wire ones BT supply to business broadband connections....but only slightly.
I'd suggest if you are considering BT as your broadband provider...not using their router.
And I've always found the BT Home Hub to be rubbish, so I got my own router.
Quite :)
