Reply To: New Router setup Hi all, So in preparation for replacing my router, I’m wondering how other people go about replacing theirs. For me, I have several devices on static IP and the rest…

Out of interest, can you turn off WIFI on a BT home hub?

If so, I’m thinking:-

Set static WIFI devices to DHCP

Setup new router with same WIFI details.

Turn off WIFI on BThome  hub and let all devices connect to new router & get new IP details.

Then change static IP addresses on remaining wired devices (using old router via a wired connection) and then plug cable into new router.

Let wired devices get IP from new router.

You think this is viable?

Thanks
