Super Hub "IP Flood" Detection

I hope this may help other new users to the Superhub and may be get me some answers from the more experience forum member

I took delivery of my Superhub yesterday, took my Time Capsule out off the network, and replaced the whole network with my new VM hub

The wired result to my mac was very good 31 meg down 3+ meg up perfect

But the wireless performance was awful 3 meg up 0.4 meg down, even within 10 feet of the hub

So I configured my Time Capsule to go back into the network and just use the Hub as a modem , wireless speeds now back to normal

but today at a loose end I tried again, as I really only want to use one device if possible, I left the time Capsule settings as my original changes, took it out off my network completely and just switched back the wireless on the hub

Wola speeds on wireless at full belt, so I went back into the Hub to investigate, it seems that when I switched food detection on my speeds drop to 3meg, when I switch it off my speed are 30 meg

so why is that ? and perhaps more pertinent why is the hub shipped with flood detection switch on? if it slows the wireless part down so much and causes customer dissatisfaction

The attached is my readings using the wireless function of the Hub at a distance of 10 meters from the HUB
