I can post it since I see mark posted it in public anyway not just to testers.
Its a long planned changes list.

This is an update to give you an idea of all of the features suggested in this thread that we're currently investigating if we can include in the Super Hub firmware
We've not finished our investigation into if it's practical for us to include all of these features, but we do hope to include as many as possible.
Also to speed the availability of Modem Mode (Bridge Mode) these features will not be included in that firmware update available in the near future as we first hoped. When we have more information on which features will be selected and when they'll be available I'll post it on the forum.
Feature requests for Overlay GUI
•Add Super Hub reboot option
•Increased overlay GUI timeout (also add user defined option) - This is currently 180 seconds, needs to be minimum of 360 seconds and/or user defined
•Link to VM Speed Test tool
•Visual confirmation of 'connect speed' for upstream and downstream
Feature requests for Advanced GUI
•Remove reboot after reserving a LAN IP - Currently, the Super Hub reboots after every LAN IP is reserved. Should be able to add multiple before applying the setting and rebooting the Super Hub
•Add DDNS support - Ability to set-up DDNS services
•Add ability to specify alternate DNS - Ability to set an alternate DNS on Super Hub, used for 'OpenDNS' type services
•Add Quality Of Service (QOS) functionality - Adding a QOS feature that will allow certain traffic to be prioritized
•Add ability to directly access 'Advanced' GUI via unique URL - So instead of entering 192.168.0.1 (or http://routerlogin.net) you could enter 192.168.0.1/advanced (or http://routerlogin.net/advanced)
•Add Channel adaption technology (Smart Wireless) - Ability to monitor frequency noise and change channel on the fly in order to move to a less saturated frequency
•Add ability to dim/switch off LEDs
•Add ability to configure VPN
•Add ability to monitor Bandwidth & usage
•Add Wake On LAN (WOL) functionality - Ability to wake up connected (but powered down/sleeping/hibernating) device
•Access to signal levels without having to log into GUI - Ability to access http://192.168.0.1/RgConnect.asp without logging into GUI
•Provide SNMP Monitoring - Provides ability to monitor LAN side settings (not WAN side) - i.e. bandwidth, CPU load, RAM etc… generally read only
•Add Network Time Protocol (NTP) functionality - Retains accurate time by linking to online time service, also provides ability to synchronize clocks on all devices across the network
•Add Port Address Translation (PAT) functionality - PAT translates TCP or UDP communications made between hosts on a private network and hosts on a public network. It allows a single public IP address to be used by many hosts on a private network (LAN)
•Add ability for user to adjust remote access timeout for SSH etc…
•Add ability to toggle port forward settings - Currently have to delete and re-enter if you wish to temporarily disable a setting
•Add ability to view same stats as on the VM300 - For example: Correctable codewords, Uncorrectable codewords, Total codewords received, Upstream mini-slot size, Interleave data if it's not standard across the network, etc...
•Allow MAC auto-population - For area's where a MAC address is to be entered (i.e. LAN IP area), allow MAC of connected device to be selected and auto-populated - will reduce input errors.
•Allow more than 10 pings to test connectivity.
•Improved logs - Add Device power cycle, firmware updates, dropped connections, ports/services blocked, etc...
•Configurable INTERNAL IP Lease Time
•Add confirmation prompt prior to any reboot attempt.

there is incidently a new beta version now as well. They seem to be a bit confused over the timeout stuff tho thinking it be specific setting for ssh etc. when really it just be a tcp established connection timeout setting so would apply to everything.
