Well so far so good, wireless strength isnt quite as good as my trusty WRT610N, but fine for around the house (not tried it in the garden yet), Not had any drop outs at all, web pages snap up nice and quick.

Speedtest's are returning between 20 to 30 Mbps, on my wireless G and N laptops, tried a few games on my PS3 and it seems pretty good to be fair and the superhub opened the correct ports via upnp no probs.

The wireless channel selection I've left to auto negotiate but a quick sniff shows a neighbour also on the same channel as me (6), so I might change that manually, but all told so far its a thumbs up.

Oh and ping and jitter seem exactly the same but checking the power levels etc shows the SNR is much improved (was 38 now 43) which I find surprising.
