Which Home Hub do you have?? HH4 or HH5??
BT sell a similar dongle to the one you have for Duel Band WiFi, I have just bought 3 for my HH4 at £9.99 each. If yours is a 5 then the same type are about £29.99.
They do work better than my laptops built in WiFi though, go to BT Shop.

My BT home hub is a 3

I can't get infinity where I am, I live in a retirement complex and we have fibre optic on the road but it has not yet been brought into the Court where I live.

If you wanted Infinity you could get what is called "fiber to Cabinet"
and for the last bit to your home would be "wire"
I have that and I reckon the "Cabinet" is about 50 mtrs away and I get approx 50 to 60GB down and approx 9 to 11 GB up.
If I were you I would Hassle BT for a new Hub, tell them yours is getting hot and smelly or you will leave if they don`t upgrade it.
