Re: Superhub & Virgin Media Business
 

I think his source just heard something and passed it on .. he doesn't seem to know much about it ..

Re: Superhub & Virgin Media Business
 

Does anyone know anything about the forthcoming Virgin Media BUSINESS Superhub?

Re: Superhub & Virgin Media Business
 

I've got one setup, service wise it does as it should but thats pretty much as far as I go with testing .. get it to work and make sure it works with all levels of service it should ..

Seems to be very much like the SH to be honest, clearly its got some big differences, but you need someone from Netgear or VM to allow the specs to be released to find anything interesting.

Sorry I can't be of much us .. doesn't Ste (cable team) work for business ?

Re: Superhub & Virgin Media Business
 

So another different superhub again for business?

Re: Superhub & Virgin Media Business
 

Its a different modem, I don't think Superhub is in the name .. I can't remember what they decided to call it ..

Looks pretty much the same though .. but then the Superhub does look good.

In fact scrap that .. I've only seen what they have used to test, so it could just be a test case .. case ..

Re: Superhub & Virgin Media Business
 

So it's Netgear then, thoguh good to hear a different product to the residential one. Looking at the standard Netgear products this one seems to be the one that meets the requirements - ie L2TP and support for Static subnets, albeit in a different case.

Re: Superhub & Virgin Media Business

Re: Superhub & Virgin Media Business

Re: Superhub & Virgin Media Business
 

Its a business ploy to lead you away from the new Supersuperhub ..

Re: Superhub & Virgin Media Business
 

whats it called, the amazinghub

Re: Superhub & Virgin Media Business
 

'Magic' Hub.

As in it magically stops working when there is no plausible reason or influence that could cause it to do so.

Re: Superhub & Virgin Media Business
 

They would be morons to keep the superhub name when launching a new business product after it has been so thoroughly dragged through the mud on the consumer side, even if it is the same kit with some firmware tweaks. It will probably use the Tivo convention of being stupidly long. So the "Virgin Media Business Hub powered by Netgear."

Re: Superhub & Virgin Media Business
 

I spoke to Business sales today again. They now have a date of 1st July for the new services. Told me the service does come with a combined modem/router but that its not the same device residential use (as far as he knows!).

He also confirmed that the price for business 50 Mb/s service with phone line will be £54 a month, which will include the existing 60 mins inclusive call package for UK & selected international calls. However they are adding free calls to UK mobiles now (first 10 mins).

The 10 Mb/s service will stay, but the 20 Mb/s service will be replaced by a business 30 Mb/s service at £44 per month (including phone line). True static IP addresses will be available on all packages. for £5 a month for a single static IP or £10 for 5 static IP addresses.
