latest sky white router / hub

[lamblamb]

has anyone got one as there are some rumours flying about which i consider as utter bullshit but am willing to be proved wrong

Sky Broadband Users – Read This Before Accepting Their “Upgrade”!

Sky is rolling out a new white router, but don’t be fooled – this is a trap.

If they offer you a “free router upgrade,” refuse it immediately. These new routers are completely locked down, meaning you CANNOT disable Sky Shield. That gives them full control over what you can and can’t access online. Some services that block VPNs will make it even harder to bypass their restrictions.

anyone confirm anything from first hand experience?

Anyone got one of these & having issues ? Just recently it’s started taking around 10 mins for me to login to my service but once it finally logs in everything works. The options are still there to enable & disable shield & security settings but it makes no difference logs straight in using a VPN. I’m wondering if changing the DNS in the router config to googles will fix the login issue.

Yes they are blocking tv and some vpns but you can access nanny settings but I'm not 100% sure if that sorts it.

It’s not actually blocking it as it just takes around 10 mins to login but when it finally logs in everything works. All settings for security & shield are still there but even when all disabled it’s still the same but the router has been fine until recently so it looks like it’s had a firmware update.

Did you change dns settings. 8.8.8.8 or 1.1.1.1
