@Andrewstreet 

 

Which hub do you have?

 

Have you got the hub in a well ventilated area?

 

In your opinion does the hub potentially pose a hazard?

If it is really getting that hot, would it not be sensible to unplug it and contact Sky for a replacement to be sent out, describing the symptoms of what's happening?
