Hi,
We've identified an intermittent interoperability issue affecting some customers who've bought a BT Premium Whole Home WiFi solution for use with a Hub 3.0.
We're currently working on a fix for this which will be rolling out in a future firmware release. We'll provide an update once the firmware is ready.
Our apologies for any inconvenience caused, please bear with us whilst we get this problem fixed.

Hi Kev,
There doesn’t appear to be any pattern to it whatsoever.
I’m still able to connect to the Hub 3.0’s WiFi network (when enabled) and the connection works even when the WH network has died.
Interestingly though, I used the same WH network on a Sky connection and didn’t have a single dropout in 24 hours.
When I put it back on the VM network one disk dropped out within minutes.
So frustrating because a combination of the hub and WH would make a great solid proof product!
Cheers

Hi
Can I have the firmware update too. I'm having the same issues. I've tried calling the technical team but they've refused to update my firmware.

I've now sent my disks back and bought a set of TP-Link Deco M9 plus. They are great! And work no problem at all with my old 1810 VM firmware.
What's really good is they have an inbuilt router on 192.168.68.1

Hi Kev.
New here so not sure what if I am even asking the right questions...but I need help. I have spent weeks trying to sort out the BT WHP discs with the SH3 and I am ready to kill dead things at this point.
I have managed to stabilise the hourly dropouts by putting a Ubquiti Edge router between the SH3 and the BT WHP discs, then putting the SH3 into Modem mode only. But I still get daily dropouts, weekly reboots of the WHP discs and more frustratingly I get massive slow downs - dropping from 200mbps download to 20!!!! Only a reboot of the SH3 solves this... then I need to reconnect every IOT device in the house!
I thought that the SH3 would auto update but the software version I am seeing is 9.1.1811.401, I assume I need to move to 9.1.1910.200 as per this thread on BT. How do I get this new version and can anyone confirm if this solves the issue?
Hoping someone can help and for reference this is the setup I have.

You likely have other problem if the hub is in modem mode can you test the internet by wire to the Edge router when you loss connection.

Hi Kev
Any idea when I should expect my router to have the latest firmware sent to it. Still on old version.
Regards

Hi all,
I've sent all the requests for firmware updates through, there isn't a timescale for this but I will let you know as soon as I have confirmation of the updates being sent through.
Please just ensure your hubs are left powered on for the time being to ensure the update can be downloaded and installed correctly.

Hi @Kev_B,
This looks like all of the issues that I have had for the last 6 weeks....
I am also on the 9.1.1811.401 software version... Can I please be put onto the new firmware push?
Kind regards,
Jay

I have been on 9.1.1811.401 for a couple of years without a problem.
What makes people think that there is a problem with it ?
