SWISH Fibre and BT Whole Home


[link to this post]
 
Hopefully someone can help. Searched an hour for an answer but came up empty handed.
Has anyone connected their BT Whole Home discs to the Swish Fibre Plume superpod?
I have a Swish installation in a few weeks and would like to connect my existing BT Whole Home discs.
Thanks in advance

Not done it myself but don't see why it wouldn't work - BT themselves claim they work with any broadband service provider. All you'd need to do is connect one of the discs via an ethernet cable to the Plume Pod supplied by Swish. You might also want to disable the WiFi on the Plume Pod and just continue with your existing WiFi connection from the BT discs, but that's optional.

BT Whole Home will work fine, BT Total Wi-Fi (the service you subscribe to) cannot be used in that way, and BT will probably ask for the discs back anyway.

Seconded… we have Whole Home discs providing WiFi in a rented building with a leased line internet, so nothing to do with home broadband smile
