I thought that BT had ditched ADSL years go.
I was on it for years. Now I have VDSL.
What Internet delivery technology do you have now?
The modem router was purchased from 3 / Three and is consistently advertised as a "4G Hub"; as such, I naively thought '4G Hub' to be a standard term, hence "today I got a 4g hub".
4G mobile telephone stuff is not common so there may not be many people here who understand or use it.
Does the thing from 3 have a model number?
This?

Where I live the ISP is using the hybrid access solutions from Tessares who combines ADSL over phone line together with a 4G/LTE or 5G modem to speed up speeds when the distance to the street cabinet is at a further distance: https://www.tessares.net/hybrid-access-solution/
I am thinking that is what the topic starter is refering as a hub.
Keep also in mind that when you are using the 4G LTE modem there could also be speed issues on the reception of the cellural signal. So you need to check the speed that the 4G LTE modem receives. You wired speed can not exceed that speed. Normally an extender will not have an impact on a wired connection.
