My son has an IBM T42 laptop and I have an IBM x32 laptop. the T42 was running Windows 7 and the x32 Windows XP.
When my son connected to our BTHOMEHUB using wireless my x32 (also wireless) imediately lost internet access (Still showing as connected to the BThonehub but no data transfer) as soon as the T42 disconnected my x32 reconnected...
I formatted the T42 and installed Windows XP which seemed to fix the problem but next day it reappeared, I have unplugged the bthonehub and am now using an old "sitecom" router which works perfectly fine with both laptops...
I want to use the bthomehub along with the hub-phone but there seems to be an issue with the homehub & the T42 laptop (BT say they arent aware of any issues and it must be my software or drivers doh!)
 
It sounds like it could be a firmware issue with bthomehub. If possible, see if there is an update on the manufacturer's support site.
