This sounds like a problem with your wife's phone, or the BT hub - since they're the bits that aren't working :lol:

... it could be DHCP problem, I suppose, if both Draytek and BT 'thing' are both active and in conflict...

Is there any reason the Draytek Router can't be the primary connection to the Internet, with the BT Hub relegated to being a simple Access Point? The tail seems to be wagging the dog at the moment :roll:
