Hey all,
Just wondering if the Hub 5 is still as buggy as 2 years ago and if there is a list of known issues.
I had ethernet connection and wifi dropping alongside high latency spikes.
I'm currently still running the 2AC but wary I will need to switch soon due to the landline moving to VoIP.
Thanks.

The Hub 5 in modem mode is a good solid unit. However, there are still some "quirks" with the Hub 5 as a router, and these are being worked on. I believe there is a new firmware update due to fix DHCP problems.
Besides a Hub 3 or 4 will do the VoIP change over, so you will not necessarily get a Hub 5.

Thanks for that mate. Could you elaborate on the quirks?
I have had the Hub 5 since its release in 2021 and was not required to return as its still linked to my account when I want to activate it again.

I believe the newer firmware may solve these problems, but as I only use modem mode I can't say for sure.
