Re: R30 - Superhub R29 is no more....
 

Got R30 eventually, Superhub still useless for music streaming with Aiport Express. Think I'm gonna put it into modem mode and use the Airport as a router.

Re: R30 - Superhub R29 is no more....
 

Sorry perhaps a little misleading , yes its in modem mode , and i know wireless is obviously off on the superhub , just saying that the wireless signal on my router compared to the superhub is much stronger :)

Re: R30 - Superhub R29 is no more....
 

FACT: Thecurrent VM blurb claims "unbeatable wireless" for the SH.

FACT: At least one user (prolly many more but I don't have the stats) reports that his router's wireless is stronger than the SH's wireless.

OPINION: VM needs to justify its claims.

Is that "calm & rational" enough?

Re: R30 - Superhub R29 is no more....
 

i agree with the above from seph. The marketing department need to communicate with the tech/networks departments. They advertise somewhat wrongly as seph has mentioned, the claims that the superhub is a premium modem/router, when its performance compares to a sub £20 router

As well as this, the "perfect for gaming" adverts are somewhat misleading, claiming that VM are perfect for gaming, and getting 50mbit will solve all lag etc. making users think they need 50mbit to play games. The timing of the games ads were somewhat off as well considering they were advertising the "perfect for gaming" when there were ongoing problems with xbox live, call of duty and WoW being misclassified by the traffic management system.

Anyway, the top and bottom is that VM are supplying cheap hardware and advertising it as a premium service

Re: R30 - Superhub R29 is no more....
 

Sounds perfectly reasonable to me.

Re: R30 - Superhub R29 is no more....
 

A few more fun facts:

FACT: The Superhub's wireless isn't even Wifi certified
FACT: The Superhub's wireless cannot pass Wifi certification in it's current state as VM have have it set to violate Wifi alliance standards

Opinion: VM didn't even bother trying to get the Superhub wifi certified

Conspiracy theory: Because they knew the wireless is so bad they'd never even have a chance, they took the opposite route to make it behave as badly and selfishly as possible purely for their own benefit (e.g. to push up their speedtest results while also negatively impacting those of other isps)

Re: R30 - Superhub R29 is no more....
 

Opinion: What a wretched device where wifi is concerned. (or is that FACT?)

Re: R30 - Superhub R29 is no more....
 

It may be a fact for some people, but not for others.......;)
