I had the same problem with the wireless netgear that VM shipped with the 50mb when I got that.
The superhub is a decent router, but it doesn't have a great wireless range - possibly because it's got internal antennae vs my ASUS's three external antennae.

Your observation may be valid however previous to getting stuck with using the superhub I was using a lynksys WRT54G2 which also has no external antenna.
Unlike the superhub, I used the WRT54G2's wireless out of the box on it's default settings. In fact, and again unlike the superhub, I have never needed to change any wireless settings on the WRT54G2 apart from setting the security.
