Depends on who you speak to. From what I can gather, some Super Hubs give decent performance and some don't. Although I have noticed most of the people saying they don't (myself included) tend to use their connections more heavily so it sounds like under stress the thing can't handle it.

My contention is, if it's tripping up for sub 100Mbps connection speeds on the WAN side, how the hell can it manage three or four times that? Although of course the firmware update remains to be seen so that might help matters.

Me personally, there's some anomaly on my account whereby the MAC for both my original blue NTL-badged Ambit 250 and new Super Hub can be interchanged, so I can nearly side-by-side comparison the two giving me something of a unique insight into the differences. Not that I mention it much, for obvious reasons.
