    Electricity Use

    My electricity supplier (EDF) provides a web-based hub that displays the daily/monthly consumption in £ and Kwh. It is actually not a gimmick (as I first suspected) and does throw up some interesting information which is helping to reduce bills a bit. One thing we did was to start using our Mira...

    Wifi speed dilemma

    My friend recently had the full fibre eero system installed by Talk Talk. The promised speed is 150 Mbs but he rarely gets much more than 50 right next to the eero. I tested the connection with my tablet and got 150 over WiFi next to the eero, so the issue must be with his laptop. Could this be...

    Pyronix V11 keypad.

    The eero router doesn't have WPS, it's all app based which is a bit of a pain. Mind you, I couldn't connect my panel to my BThub2 by WPS so I used the keypad.

    Pyronix V11 keypad.

    Can I input a # symbol? My friend needs his new router to be connected and this is part of the SSID/password codes. Has anyone tried the connection method using a smart device to connect to the panel? Does it work OK? Might give it a try if all else fails.

    Electric cooker wiring.

    Terryplumb..are there any cookers that can use a 13amp plug? Does the OP mean oven or cooker? I think it's the latter according to his first post. I have a Neff oven that is rated at 2.99KW (but with a gas hob).

    VOIP phone recommendation?

    Any recommendations for a VOIP phone (no need for video screen etc. - just a phone). For connection to a full fibre router phone socket (BT hub2). No need for remote handsets at this stage.

    Talk Talk fibre 150 with eero box.

    Printer now working via Ethernet. But I had to move the DECT base upstairs (from the downstairs hallway) into a small office in order to use the Grandland equipment for the primary phone. Now the two remote phones downstairs are working intermittently and throw up a message saying they cannot...

    Talk Talk fibre 150 with eero box.

    Thanks to all for the useful advice. It took some time to remove the base station from a wall downstairs (screwed in) but then it all worked with the little adaptor that TT had supplied. The number is still the same and yes, they now have to use area codes for every call out. All the remote...

    Talk Talk fibre 150 with eero box.

    Does the phone plug into the eero or the Grandstream box? They were asked if they had a mobile to make 999 calls when they ordered the fibre line. I think that's a legal requirement for providers before they can action an installation. I'm assuming that their number will be stored somewhere in...

    Talk Talk fibre 150 with eero box.

    My elderly neighbours ordered the above expecting to keep their existing landline. They were left with a Grandstream box but their phone is dead. I set up the Internet connections to their devices but the phone has me stumped. Do they need a special VOIP phone? They have DECT at the moment. Can...

    WiFi setup

    Or use WPS if it's V11. Does the option WIFI SETUP? not appear when you scroll through the options?

    BT Hub and WPS?

    My alarm console didn't like WPS so I did everything with the keypad. I didn't change the router's default SSID or password - is that necessary these days with better security? I have put in a new router admin password and disabled WPS though.

    Pyronix V11

    Hope there won't be a next time for quite a few years! I can't work the washing machine now, never mind if it was wifi enabled!

    Pyronix V11

    Yes, but I did it, even at my advanced age. The chap who fitted my fibre line said that they are working flat out at the moment as broadband providers are offering good deals on folk (like me!) who do a bit of homework and then make them an offer if they renew for 24 months. It's 100% fibre...

    Pyronix V11

    I'm such a wally! I finally realised that it must be there because my installer entered the details of my old router as I dictated them to him and that had a - symbol! So I bit the bullet and delved into the keyboard. I'm connected!! I love this new system but the rather tricky keypad is...

    Pyronix V11

    Hello again I've tried using WPS to connect my new router to the Enforcer, but no luck. I'm going to enter the details manually and I'm good to go except...supposing my SSID is BT-ABC123, (it's not) how do I enter the - character? I can't see it on the keyboard. Sorry to be so thick!

    BT Hub and WPS?

    I'm about to have BT FTTP and so will have a new router. I've used WPS to connect devices in the past but I shall need to connect my alarm console to WiFi. The router will be in a room above the console so can I still use WPS or will I have to bite the bullet and enter it manually? I suppose my...

    Pyronix V11

    Yes, I have a Samsung Galaxy. Do you know how far apart the router and the console can be for WPS to work? I paired my printer to my laptop via WPS but it did say to put the devices as close as possible to each other. I'm very grateful for your help DIYSOS - the system will definitely be...

    Pyronix V11

    I've just been watching the Pyronix video about connecting to home Wifi. There is no option to use WPS, which I've used several times to connect to other devices. Is this not an option? I wonder if the two devices would be too far apart for WPS anyway - is there a distance limit? The bloke...
