The standalone modem they supplied is able to reach 200mb speeds, but VM don't allow it on 100mb (and almost certainly won't on 200mb); this was never a Netgear device though - it's an Ambit. The router supplied with it was a Netgear for a short period and then a D-Link, both of these only go up to 100mbps. Since both are capable of 100mbps, in the way VM are currently delivering 100mbps to the Superhub, there's no real technical reason why you can't keep using it - however VM do not allow it for reasons known only to them.

The Superhub on the other hand is technically capable of 400mbps but I'm guessing VM are likely to limit it to 200mbps in practice.
