I would like to know if I have the best sky hub for my broadband

I have just upgraded to gigafast fibre and have the black sky hub, I would like to know if this is the best one available or is the white one?

A black Sky Broadband Hub is WiFi 5 (802.11ac) with WPA2, while the Max Hub is WiFi 6 (802.11ax) with WPA3.

Hi, just spoken to a sky agent, I didn't realize the white hub was for sky glass/stream service so as I have Q, I currently have the best hub .

Thanks for your reply

That's not entirely correct: it's more accurate to say that Sky won't currently supply a Max Hub to households with Q television using Mini boxes because there are apparently unresolved issues between the rather antique 'Q mesh' and the much more modern Plume technology in Max.
