Macca65 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Greetings and salutations to all my Duma brother and sisters (if any) :)Happy New Year to you all. Advice/Help please I have BT Infinity with the HH5. I also have a. Asuus Router. which has a DSL port. Obviously to connect to a modem. I am in two mind whether to sell the Asus if I can't use it with my particular set up. I used it previously as an AP when I had Virgin, I would if possible like to use it in place of my HH5. So, would I have to buy an Openreach modem? or would an adapter, if one exits, be sufficient Also would I still be able to access the BT apps/players on my TV. Thanks in advance Edit: Nobody got any advice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonicBoom Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Is your Asus a modem/router combo? I'm sure a friend of mine on BT switched his home hub out for an Asus without any problems, he didn't buy a modem so he must have used either what he had already (from BT) or his Asus was an all-in-one.

Hi Boom No it's a router, it doesn't have the built in modem, so that's why I was asking the question re the modem. I know so Asus router have a built in modem, but not mine:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonicBoom Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 I'm on TalkTalk so can't say if it's a pain in the bum with BT or not, I think you've got similar flexibility with BT like TalkTalk though. After all, I'm using an BT Openreach modem. Someone in here will know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
