Plusnet

Hi I wonder if anyone can help with a problem I have with my Plusnet WiFi. I changed from Talk and didn't have a problem with my mobile, printer or Tablet as far as using the WiFi instead of my data, since Plusnet it's just my tablet that I can use on WiFi, although the tablet is WiFi only, but I don't know if that is relevant. I've tried several times to add my mobile to the WiFi but with no luck. Anyone have any ideas please.

    What phone do you have and which Plusnet router is it?
    If its the Hub 2 then these don't have a way of splittting 2.4 and 5Ghz networks, and I'll bet that's the issue that the phone isn't 5Ghz compatible.
