BT Home Hub 

Your BT Home Hub is a broadband router that can connect computers to the 
internet using wired or wireless connections. Your Hub can share the broadband 
service across separate computers and devices (e.g. games consoles) and  
BT services such as BT Broadband Talk, BT Broadband Anywhere and BT Vision.
