Unfortunately they are doing themselves no favours by continually spouting "well mine's alright and it's been on 6 or 8 weeks" etc.

IMHO they are losing the respect they've built up over the time they've been helping out here.

Only time will tell but as of midnight I'm no longer a VM customer I don't care about them!

So the truth hurts, well that's not my problem if that is something you dispute if you do not want to read that then do not read any threads relating to Virginmedia as you are no longer a customer unless you have an agenda.

If mine and other peoples equipment works why should we say otherwise or is that against the terms and conditions of this site, if I had issues I would be on the phone all the time but since install it has been rock solid as always.

I'm glad you agree to the veracity of my post, as to an agenda, I have none.

I also have no agenda, just because my Superhub works as it should and I post that it works normally does not mean that I am trying to protect the device because if it was not working I would be complaining louder than anyone on here.

you dont have an xbox, you dont use port forwarding, and i guess you dont use wireless to tranfer a lot of data LAN side, so you cant say it works perfectly until you have tested it

We all know the problems with the hub

And as said not all customers are affected, which your not but many are. But try to be more constructive and helpful rather posting about your own hub...

It does depend on what she's playing;)

My son-in-law has an xbox and plays football online with no problems but I presume thats one to one and not via a server. One granddaughter plays Club Penguin on a PC and doesnt complain. This is all on 10Mb and not on a superhub so will probably be shot down by the anti hub side as irrelevent :)

My camera has a fault in that when you set the focus zone from a choice of 6 areas on the screen after a while it goes back to choosing its own zone. Very annoying but it wont get fixed and it cost much more than a hub:erm:

I have used the 20 Meg for years, and the best it reached 17 Meg. Mostly 15 Meg.
Since I got the super hub, it as been hovering 30 Meg .
It has dropped down twice in the last two weeks to 12 Meg.

Sending files over the network,from 1 mac to another at least, has no issues at all and transfer at around 23 MB/s

i mean a lot, iv seen itunes libraries around 20gig but that's not even that big, as i said, it only affects more advanced user, in this case, those transferring a lot of data LAN side

It's 19 pages of "yes it is" verses "no it is not" ..... :confused:

No doubt the true story will be released by Wikileaks ....;)
