To say that you are using your own router without problems is misleading. Technically speaking, it wasn't even a router to begin with - the device you have plugged in is a residential NAT gateway but the terminlogy is so ingrained to most people it'd be futile trying to change it.
Since I don't have a Superhub I cannot give properly tested advice on how to set up their own router with it. I had originally been advising people it should work fine with the Superhub based on standard networking principles. However following evidence to the contrary from people who have actually tried my advice now is to not bother at all as it is difficult and doesn't always function as you'd expect. Starting a thread titled "using your own router" would also be misleading as the only way to use your own router is to use it in a partially-broken configuration or to not use it as a router.
I would appreciate if you'd stop confusing the issue by saying you are using your own router with no problems when you are not using your own router, period. I don't care what you want to call the embedded device you have plugged in but calling it a router is incorrect both in the technical and common language terms of the word. All you would need to do is qualify your statement as "I am using my own router as a wireless access point, not a router and have no problems."

Try offering help rather than be a sad nagger, I really do not care one way or another what you think as my router is up and working and providing a connection in my property, it maybe only as an access point but it works and why should be people not be aware that they can do this with their existing kit.
So either wind your neck in or offer something constructive advice until the bridge mode firmware is released.
Another so called "professional" being unhelpful why does that not surprise me in the least.
