Another Dual Band router or unmanaged Gigabit switch or both

My BT fibre broadband ends on Monday the router for the new service has arrived and is a Technicolor TG588v v2 which unlike the BT Homehub5 doesn't have any Gigabit ports and no 5GHz wireless.
Could I get something more in the homehub5 league for a modest price if so any suggestions please?
[I believe BT want the homehub back]

Ah I find I have an old Home Hub 4 which has 1 ethernet port and dual band wireless but is this just for ADSL2?
I didn't know that BT Homehubs sold outside of BT - looks like HH5 is available from Amazon for about 60 UKP....

HH5 is not that amazing

TP-Link VR600 at £90-100 is a dual band all-in-one that should tick boxes for most people http://amzn.to/2lZLOcN plus has a Broadcom DSL chipset which is usually a good thing

though bt may send a returns envelope, this is usually so they can show it has been disposed of responsibly.

I'll have to check but I think I paid them about £59 for this hub...
If so I should be able to keep it surely?

If you paid then yes its yours

BT will ask you to return it, there is no absolute requirement to do so given you paid .

Checked and I didn't pay for it the charges were Infinity activation fees.
Looking through their Tariff T's & C's if you don't reach 12 months (I didn't because they changed the deal thus giving me a getout) they state they can make a charge and it looks like the minimum amount is what I could get a HH5 for from Amazon.

I'm not going to do that as Mr Saffron made a much better suggestion for a few squids more

Hope you don't mind asking this extra bit. On the Amazon link just before chckout on the TP-Link VR600 the usual "customers who bought this also bought this..."

It's only a few quid more - is this a better deal? I may not need all it offers but may "grow into it"
