Certainly I think the poor range will be down to the hardware but the hangs and frequent refusals to accept new connections or work at all in 300Mbps mode when driven hard are all going to be firmware.

As the radio is a plug in PCI-e card (just like a laptop) upgrading the wireless should be reasonably straight forward but I strongly suspect it won't happen - if existing customers got wind of improved hardware they'd all be trying to wangle a replacement one way or another and the costs would be high. I think we're (ok - you're - I wangled a VMNG300) stuck with the hardware until the next CPE arrives. I'm amazed they have the cheek to supply the superhub for 100Mbps.
