Common questions

Below are a few of the more frequently asked set-up questions. If you have

a problem and can’t find the answer here, see page 10 of your

User Guide

for more help.

Q

When should I start setting up my BT Home Hub?

You can start setting up your BT Home Hub at any time – but please bear in mind that

your new broadband line may not be activated until midnight on your activation day.

We’ll show you during set-up how to tell if your service is active.

If you’re moving an existing broadband connection to BT, it will stop working. When this

happens, you can start setting up your Hub.

If you’re already using BT Total Broadband, you can set up your Hub whenever you want

as your line’s already active.

Q

I already have a modem, router or BT Home Hub. What should I do?

Simply unplug any existing broadband equipment before setting up your BT Home Hub.

For help with how to do this, see page 20 in your

User Guide

. If you’d like to use your

own router with BT Total Broadband, see page 23 of your

User Guide

.

Q

I’m not sure where to fit my ADSL filters. Where can I find more help?

Please see page 24 in your

User Guide

.

Q

I already have ADSL filters. Do I need to change them over?

You can leave your existing filters in place or replace them with the new ones sent with

your Hub. It’s up to you!

Q

What do I do if I don’t have enough ADSL filters?

You can get ADSL filters from

www.shop.bt.com/microfilters

, most computer shops or

by calling 0800 800 150.

If you don’t have enough filters, but want to set up broadband, you should unplug any

device without an ADSL filter from its phone socket. You can reconnect the device once

you’ve an ADSL filter for it.

Q

Can I use an extension lead to connect my Hub to my phone socket?

Yes. We recommend that the extension lead is in good condition and is no longer than

ten metres. Using extension leads can affect your broadband’s performance. To find out

about using ADSL filters with extension leads, please see ‘Fitting filters – what do I do?’

on page 24 of your

User Guide

.

Q

Can I connect more than one phone to an ADSL filter?

Yes. If you use a socket doubler, you can connect more than one phone to a single

ADSL filter, as shown here.

Q

I have an ADSL master socket. Do I still need to use ADSL filters?

No. When you get to

Quick Start

cable straight into the ADSL master socket’s DSL socket.
