All the VMNG300 needs is a firmware upgrade to enable 8 downstream channnel bonding.

Depends which version of the Puma 5 chipset lives in it.

TNETC4840 is the 8 downstream version, TNETC4830 is the 4 downstream version.

The VMNG300 is one of these.

Nothing in the data sheet about it being firmware upgradeable to 8 downstreams though I do remember someone from VM excitedly commenting to that effect.

The VMNG300 had already been publicly tested as a publicity stunt on 200mb.

I take it that you have not read iggi's post above.

Regardless of any demo it is now consigned to history and this thread is the wistful thread.

There were about 50 customers sharing 200Mb in that trial, it was over 4 channels. In the production network you're talking closer to 400 customers sharing each 200Mb.

Their website isn't up to date, but they do have an 8/4 product. Ugly son of a gun.

Makes no real difference though as the modem of choice is now the Superhub on all tiers 30Mb and upwards.

Thanks for repeating this for the umpteenth time. It really adds to the weight of the message. :dozey:

Well this thread is just a VMNG300 worship thread which in reality is going nowhere.

My superhub activity monitor says:
Measurement Period: 0days 5h:13m:6s

Despite my never having switched it off since I installed it.

Actually that's a good reading. :)

I do believe that sometimes I can go a whole day without it rebooting but then other times it will reboot on and off all day long. :(

VMNG and Superhub sitting on the same drop, side by side, neither drop connection or see slow speeds ..

( I felt I needed to say that as Masque isn't here ) :)

Re: Vmng300

It must be a network issue then, ive had 4 superhubs and all drop connections. Even when just on my iphone and nothing else connected. Could it be a UBR issue? Failing to correct bad codewords?

All times are GMT. The time now is 09:29.
