The signal isn't as strong as some other routers which is the problem. I used to get full bars in my kitchen with my other netgear, with the superhub, get only 2-3 bars for some reason.

You haters read a few reports that the SH is rubbish and from then on you stick your fingers firmly in your ears and shout as loud as you can "its crap, its crap, its crap"

It has faults, everything has faults, it has users that don't like it, everything has users like that .. its not suitable for .. blah blah blah ..

Regardless of how many people you see with a faulty hub, or how many people have complained on a forum about it, the figures for success massively outweigh those of the failures.

Now I'm sure you'll be thinking well, all the customers who haven't called in are just too lazy and if you want to think like that you can.

VM are working on its faults, they have acknowledged these faults and continue to test and improve. Whether you lot like it or not, the number of successful installs, live modems, modems seeing full speed, etc is miles higher than the complaints and issues.

Personally, I don't care. The SH can be replaced tomorrow or it can live for ever, it really make no difference to me. I'm giving you facts .. I'm not telling you I think its good and I'm not telling you I think there are more successes, I know it. If you choose not to believe me, then screw you :)

Broadband services

Ofcom’s data indicates that across fixed broadband providers with a market share of 5 per cent or above, it received the most complaints about TalkTalk Group with 1.27 complaints per 1000 customers from October 2010 to February 2011. Ofcom saw a peak in complaints about TalkTalk Group in November 2010, following its investigation into the company for billing consumers for cancelled services.

The least complained about provider was Virgin Media with 0.20 complaints per 1000 customers.

I switched off the auto backups to my NAS but the superdud still spontaneously reboots. Twice today so far, nothing in the event log.

R26 has now been loaded in my SuperHub. It went off around 17.30 for about 30 mins so i phoned 151 and they decided it needed a tech cos of the high upstream which has been booked for Easter Monday.

I now wonder if it was the download that was messing it up.
