As I'm in a nitpicking mood...
There's an F1, F2 and G1 revision now too, all of which are unsupported by dd-wrt.
So, supported:
C, D, E (most).
Unsupported:
A, B, E2, F, G.
Would you like to look at your majority again?

It's not quite set up properly yet but it's usable. Wireless N only gives me 130Mbps although DD-WRT reports it is 300Mbps.

"It's a feature, not a bug".
Overzealous interference avoidance algorithm (40Mhz switches itself off if it detects any other beacons on either channel), introduced with the new driver since build 15xxx and onwards. If you want 300mbps mode to come on and stay on, you'll need to use build 14929 or older.

But as potential further proof that the Super Hub I was sent is completely worthless, performance is exactly the same if not better for LAN, WAN or both simultaneously. And will no doubt improve when things are set correctly, but even if not at least the dropouts will be gone for good.

A good link at 144mbps on the DIR-615 will give about 90mbps of wireless throughput, 300mbps will only really up this to ~95mbps due to the 100mbps port limitation. But you may see some improvements at longer ranges.

To make good on my promise - thanks! Although I'd rather have gotten one free from VM I'm really tired of wrangling with them so it really was worth a tenner.

Teehee, welcome
I think I must have got my connection in the last month during which VM were still handing out free DIR-615's. I've since bought another dozen off eBay mind you.
