Hub Manager
Your Hub is like a computer. It has its own software running, which controls how it
works and what it does. You can change your Hub’s settings using your Hub Manager
– simply open your web browser and type
bthomehub.home
in the address bar.
Access to some of the settings in Hub Manager is secured using an Admin password.
When accessing Hub Manager for the first time, you’ll be asked to enter the Admin
password from the back of your Hub and then to choose your own Admin password.
There’s some space on page 42 if you’d like to write it down.
If you can’t remember your Admin password, you’ll need to reset your Hub to its
factory default settings so you can use the default Admin password from the back
of your Hub. Please see page 37.
Hub features
Your Hub offers a wide range of features, many of which aren’t needed for day-to-
day use. BT Power Save mode and Access controls are popular everyday features
that you may find interesting. To find out more about you Hub features, go to

Warranty
We guarantee that the BT Home Hub 2.0
will work to the relevant specification for the
minimum period of your agreement* and that
it will be free from faulty design, manufacture
or materials. If at any time during the minimum
period you find that your BT Home Hub or
other equipment isn’t working properly, you
may return it to us and we’ll replace or (at our
option) repair it.
We will not be responsible for any defects
arising from fair wear and tear, accidental or
willful damage, misuse or failure to follow
our instructions. If you return any equipment
as faulty, we may test the equipment – if it’s
working, we’ll send it back to you. If we do so,
we may charge you our costs for our testing
and postage. This doesn’t affect your legal
rights relating to equipment that is faulty or

Safety and regulatory instructions
Please read this document carefully
before set-up!
•
Your Hub will get warm once it’s connected to
the power supply. Although this is normal, you
should make sure that your Hub has adequate
ventilation to prevent it from overheating.
Never block the vents on your Hub.
•
Don’t expose your Hub to rain, water,
moisture or direct sunshine.
•
Don’t spill liquid on your Hub.
•
Keep your Hub away from sources of heat
such as heaters or radiators.
•
Don’t try to disassemble or open up your Hub
yourself. Not only will it make your warranty
void, it may expose you to dangerous voltage
or other hazards.
•
Before cleaning, disconnect your Hub from its
power supply. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
•
For better performance, don’t place your Hub
on a television or computer monitor.
•
In the event of an electrical storm, you
must unplug all of your equipment from the
electricity supply and phone sockets.
•
This product intentionally generates low-level
radio frequency signals and so there’s a very
small risk that this product may interfere with
sensitive medical devices, for example a heart
pacemaker, when nearby. If you have any
concerns, BT recommends that you consult
the medical device manufacturer before using
your BT Home Hub.
•
The plug on the power cable serves as a
disconnect device. Make sure that the power
socket you plug the power cable into is
easily accessible and located as close to the
equipment as possible. Important: please
make sure you always use the power cable
supplied with your new Hub – don’t use any
other power cable.
* The minimum period will be either 12 or 18 months depending on the Option you chose when you placed your order.

Please save energy
Please avoid wasting energy while using
your computer, games console or other
equipment. You can set up your computers to
go into standby or low-energy usage mode
automatically. Your Hub has BT Power Save –
see
www.bt.com/setup/hubfeatures
Please disconnect your Hub from its power
supply when not in use for an extended period
(e.g. a holiday), but remember that when you
do so all connected computers (and any other
devices that use your Hub to connect to your
broadband line) will lose internet access and
BT Broadband Talk won’t work. Remember to
restore power to your Hub before turning on
your computer(s).
