Seems like this might be the right place to ask rather than starting a new thread. I've been interested in upgrading to 100mb for some time now but I have a reasonably complex network and some of the talk on the superhub has been putting me off quite a bit.

Have a DIR-655 linked to a 6 port gigabit Ethernet switch at the moment (which in turn links to various PCs, TV, consoles, a printer). The DIR-655 is set-up to use wireless N which in is being connected to by a DD-WRT flashed linksys router in bridge mode (which enables some other Ethernet connected items in a different part of the house).

The DIR-655 has some static IPs set up for my LAN, I am using dynamic dns, some limited port forwarding and VPN functionality.

...is any of this going to be a problem? I've read around but I can't seem to find details on the specific failings of the superhub that are causing people grief. Is it possible to dumb down the superhub and leave the rest of my network pretty much intact?
