So if everyone gets 8 VMNG300 will not work. How many channels can it do.

Is that why they want people off the VMNG300 eventually?

I believe the VMNG300 can only do 4 down stream channels, so yes that is why it won't work.

VM need to get a new modem or superhub then before they go over to 8 channels in all areas.

They have no need to do that the Superhub is ok for most people especially now you can put it in modem only mode and use a router.

Hopefully it will thrive when 8 channels are introduced.

I threw my super Hub out the window the other day lol.

Do you mean modem only mode is going to switch off wi-fi and use my router as the wi-fi instead ? Like superhub (modem only) via my Netgear Router DGND3700 for 300+300Mbps Wi-Fi.

You can select modem only mode in the Superhub, this will allow you to use your own router for wifi.
