I have got rid of the Uberhub setup. The reason? Well, the Superhub with the version R19 firmware seems to cut off wireless devices after a while, all of them. They remain linked with a good signal, just can't communicate with the internet or with other devices. It may just go increadibly slowly, almost not working at all. Changing channels seems to wake it up, but it goes back to not working a while later. The version R20 firmware in the main Superhub seems not to have these problems.

I have no such issues when I use my little VM supplied Netgear WGR614v9 router as a wireless access point (with the latest Netgear firmware on it rather than the old VM firmware). I can't get 150N on it of course though, only G.

If anyone knows a way to update a Superhub's firmware without 'activating' it so it becomes the main Superhub on one's account, do let me know. Otherwise it is just a brick as firmware R19 was obviously updated to R20 for a good reason. R19 has something very broken in it.
