So this article, which you yourself quoted earlier in this thread is wrong then?

And there already is a new, WiFi certified piece of kit matching the above description:

It's really not hard to see how people could be confused.

Is this the one? had it fitted this afternoon & the engineer was going on about it, so I googled it and came across this thread.

Having massively varied results, according to ookla, from 9-94mbps so far. However this is from a fresh installation of >152mbps this afternoon. Via ethernet has been 19 max all day, and wireless devices top out at 98! Have been told to give it 24 hours to settle, but since realising the desktop is fast ethernet, I doubt I will see over 100 anyway. So I am debating installing a Wi-fi pci card or upgrade to gigabit?

Gigabit will be superior to wireless in every way. And no, of course you wont see over 100 on a 100Mbps card. It's not like the 100Mbps is a "suggested speed limit".

My Superhub2ac died last night, basically all the leds on the front just locked up, luckily support were able to reactivate my old SH2 that i never sent back and they're sending me a new SH2ac out.

that's nice of them. I would have expected them to tell you to wait for the new shub because they can't be bothered to keep registering new shub's on the network for the sake of a couple of days.

Well you were lucky the Referendum didn't go the other way then! ;)
Not that you would have anything to beef about, as my pet Angus tells me the Scots are not known for any good taste in their choice of oratory partners anyway? I mean fancy having a fish blowing bubbles for a politician! :dunce:

I did ask her what she voted for and she said Independence and her friend voted No.
