Re: Superhub is nowhere near as bad as people say!

"Working fine" isn't really true.

The big issue with the firewall leaves two problems:

Turning the firewall settings off ensures that things like VOIP and Gaming work fine, but Downloads (including streaming video) may drop prematurely.

Turning the firewall settings on makes downloads work again, but can interfere with gaming and VOIP.

If you have the firewall on and you don't play games then you won't see the problem - it doesn't mean that there isn't a problem there though.

The other issue with the Superhub, where using wireless channels above 9 causes the wireless network to be unusable after a while, will again only be noticed by people that are using one of the affected channels.
