What is a broadband hub?
A broadband hub, sometimes called a router or modem, is a small device supplied by the broadband provider that connects you to the internet. Once plugged in, it links to your broadband line or 5G network and sends a signal from your home connection to your wireless devices.
You can find out more about self installation on the Three website.
How do I set up my Three broadband hub?
Setting up your hub should be straightforward:
- Insert the nano-SIM card if required (the hub uses the Three mobile network).
- Connect the power adapter and plug it into a socket; the device will switch on.
- Position the hub in a good location (ideally near a window and away from signal-obstructing materials) to get the best 4G/5G reception.
- Connect your devices to the hub via WiFi (use the SSID and password on the base of the unit) or with an Ethernet cable.
For full step-by-step instructions and troubleshooting, refer to the support pages on Three’s website.
Can I use my Three broadband hub anywhere in Ireland?
Yes, if you have a Three 4G or 5G broadband plan, your hub will work anywhere there’s coverage.
Remember though, signal strength and speeds can vary by location.
What speeds can I expect with Three broadband?
Speeds depend on your location, network coverage, and whether you’re using 4G or 5G broadband.
Typically, 4G broadband offers average download speeds of around 20–50Mbps, while 5G broadband can reach 100Mbps-1Gbps or more in strong coverage areas.
Can I use my Three hub abroad?
No, Three broadband hubs are designed for use in Ireland only.
Roaming or use abroad isn’t supported, as the hub relies on the Irish 4G or 5G network for connection.
What if I don’t have 5G coverage at my address?
If 5G isn’t available where you live, you may still be able to get Three’s 4G broadband service.
The 5G hub is compatible with both 4G and 5G networks, so it will automatically connect to the strongest available signal.
You’ll still be able to browse, stream and work online; though speeds may be lower than in 5G areas and can vary depending on coverage and network demand.
To check what’s available, you can use Three’s coverage map or enter your Eircode in our broadband checker to compare options in your area.
