Re: Flashing help
Doesn't look like it's been done for the Home Hub 2 yet then.

Re: Flashing help
Bt released there updated firmware for the hub 29th nov there is 2 new versions out, dependent on your version
Software version 8.1.H.J (Type A)
Software version 4.7.5.1.83 (Type B)
think hub updates itself not sure?
Worse still, because BT have not published the scripts necessary to compile and install custom firmware to the HomeHub, apparently a contravention of the Linux GNU GPL, competent firmware writers have been unable to write alternative code which might have prevented yet another embarrassing failure.
