Was rather shocked to find BT hubs don't allow you to change DNS servers anymore and force you to use their own ones, so I can't properly setup adguard.

What routers are people using now that are reliable and will let me control my own network configuration

I just bought my own hardware and loaded PFSense. Put the ISP modem in bridged mode to disable all of their nonsense.

I set the DNS servers I want in PFSense and that filters down to everything on the network.
