Question about the BT home hubs.

I have one, theyre shit. My connection drops on average once or twice a day and when I have tried to explain this to customer services they dont understand because theyre not network analysts obviously. I had to teach one guy about what a "handshake" is in computer terms.

In conversation however one thing he said to me was that as far as he could see my connection was fairly stable and had only dropped once a day and that was acceptable. I said no, it happens once a day at around 8 or 9pm at night - right when im in the middle of fcking using it!

So my question is - now i read the guide - if I get a decent router and plug that into my homehub 5 will it improve my connection? I have currently 2 PCs, 2 phones and 1 sky tv box that connect to the hub at any one time, though not all at the same time necessarily.

Im not sure if this question is better posed on the BT forum but you made me think of it so I thought id ask here to see if this will help. If you have any knowledge specifically of this hardware that is.
