Just a thought on the silly name thing. If you keep using the standard name for it in complaints, it means people googling will find those complaint threads better. If you use silly names, then people will just be finding masque's million + posts saying how many weeks his has been running fine for. Food for thought :p

Excellent point well stated. I hadn't been calling it silly names (I think I used stuporhub once or twice, and as a tagline below my username for a while) but I'm certainly not going to start now.

Sorry, that's kind of a writers joke. Couldn't let it slip.

This is a nice, balanced opinion. I agree; if VM got away from the buggy firmware the superhub could be a good CPE with better ability to adapt to the tier upgrades than the VMNG300.

The main reason separate modem running in tandem with superhub or other unified device has been suggested, I think, is because it keeps VM competitive against specialist providers like AAISP despite lack of native IPv6 support. It's rare that a user has a slightly more complex setup, but having provision for it makes VM look like a superior ISP, IMO.

True enough. I've been guilty of that now and then. It's hard not to, when you feel very strongly about something.

You're still doing the "it's not me, it's you!" thing I see. You're a bit of a one-trick pony in debate aren't you, and by one I mean one-half.

Yeah, thanks for lumping me in with them, once again demonstrating your inattentiveness.

Do you even read everything I post, or just look for key snippets to take out of context to further this petty, off-topic vendetta you have? Don't answer that: it's a rhetorical question.

Hmmm, I suppose having Cisco certification doesn't cut it then, despite the fact that Cisco backbone significant portions of the headends VM have in their network? I love the sense of entitlement you think you have just because you're in VM's employ. It makes me

I think maybe you should watch Nick Naylor (played by Aaron "Two-Face" Eckhart in a previous role) during Thank You For Smoking and learn some more substantial debate skills, because if I were to make a boxing analogy, this would be like Tyson (me) fighting an infant (you).

Pat yourself on the back if you got the reference in that last paragraph. (That applies to anyone, not just Masque.)
