Just wanted to post a quick update a few days on, particularly as I have posted about range problems with the normal hub recently and had been PM'd asking how I was going on.
Superhub range is LOTS better for me in the house. Our iPhones/pods/pads can all finally get connected at the furthest point. That was utterly disheartening with the normal hub - especially as I'd lost my 256 and trusty old Netgear - to lose connection and have to disconnect and re-connect to get a signal back (if we were lucky - being on poorly kid duty means you can't always get out of the room easily to go and re-boot!). The Superhub is giving me dropouts however. I can live with it - it comes back online within a minute or so. Connection wise I'm getting the max up and down http and almost 40mb via nntp - this doesn't come as much of a surprise to me as I regularly got 25mb down on the 20mb connection, but it's nice to have. There are various quirks I wasn't expecting such as RDP protocols and NAS devices working only intermittently but I'm sure I can iron them out.

Of course no one will see this or take any notice of it because everyone's too busy ripping shreds of each other and trying to score points..
