Not thoroughly enough it would seem, therefore it was rushed out.

Probably because it wasn't tested across all of the network, and put under any serious pressure. I mean, it'd have to be a case of that, seeing as it fails at a lot of very basic routing tasks which have been commonplace for DECADES.

Excuse me... a FEW bugs? There are loads. I found some within an hour of plugging it in. Also, missing mainstay features like proper Dynamic DNS and port forwarding being inconsistent. As I've said before, the routing side (part of the reason it was introduced) is severely underwhelming.

And apparently a lot of those rushed out firmware updates either don't fix the bugs for everyone or introduce new ones or make other existing ones worse. I think there's less than 100 people in the secret community forum beta pool, and going from what they've posted most of those aren't particularly technically adept (some of the cluelessness about having the alpha modem mode patch rolled out makes me wonder why they were chosen at all).
I don't see why you're doing so much damage control. Attempting to blanket these clear, measurable problems and hoping they'll go away is exactly the reason people get exasperated, here on CF and everywhere else.
Now if Masque would like to chime in about how his works perfectly connected to his Edimax, that everyone will eventually have the superhub like it or lump it, that VMNG300s are rare as hens teeth etc then this thread will be complete.
