If they've got any customers left by then.

I'm hoping a firmware update that is due might resolve the issue, otherwise I'll be tempted to reinstate my linksys wireless router, shove that on the DMZ of the 'superhub', turn off the superhub wireless capability, and then administer connections via the linksys.
Had exactly the same problem so instead of allowing the hub to select the best wireless channel (default setting) i set mine to a fixed channel (11 in my case) and the problem ceased

To reset, simply keep a backup save of your router settings and restore it when you want to reboot. Simples. I've had to do that with every Netgear router I've owned. It's no biggie.

sounds good in principle, but if its backing up the problem, and restoring it when you restore from the backup, its a bit pointless.

I havnt tried this but ill give it a go next time the stuperhub dies on me, it will make my job of a reset a bit easier if i can restore it from a backup.

just taken a backup now

Might not be a biggie, but it doesn't make it right. The fact it appears to have happened so often in your experience of netgear equipment that you have actually come up with this plan is just a great example of the quality I've come to expect of netgear. I have always avoided them until now due to consistently poor reviews online and from people I know who have bought netgear. I guess VM fell foul of the whole 'cheapest bidder'... Get what you pay for, eh?

Virgin media megahub coming soon.

No PORT forwarding - this confuses our customers and adds work for our support staff.
No DMZ - this overloads the router causing crashes etc. so we remove it to make your service more stable.
No 300mbit wireless - the router cannot handle the mode so to fix the problem we remove the feature.
Auto reboot - the megahub will auto reboot daily and more if needed so you no longer have to bend down to reset the power.
Timeouts - we further increase the capability by making every connection time out after just 5 seconds. Now can handle even more load.
Flood protection, - this is enhanced, it will now go further and block those pesky speedtests as well as ping tests and browsing.
Reboots - to reboot on dhcp changes isnt enough, to ensure the settings are applied properly, we will now reboot on every setting you change.
