basically dial up
I have the new sky landline that works through a port in the wifi hub.
Whenever I go to use the landline, be it making or receiving calls, the hub loses internet connection. i feel like we are back in the 90's because we are forever saying whats wrong with the wifi, oh someone is using the house phone. how can i help this

@lostthewill that shouldn't be happening. Was your phone previously plugged into a wall socket? Have you simply transferred the phone plug from the wall socket to the phone socket at the back of ypur broadband Hub?

That might reasonably make one rather suspicious of the telephone handset....
