As such, the wireless is off and I use the asus as my gateway into the superhub for all wired and wireless connections. 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.
I must have got lucky with my superhub then, great wireless range anywhere in my house and full 50MB speeds when running tests.

House is a 60s terrace with thick walls over three floors.

I've never stated that there was nothing wrong with the hub. However at the same time not everyone has problems so that may mean there are faulty batches rather than an actual overall problem with the superhub.
