I've never insisted other customers share my experience. Where have I ever insisted that? I only translated what VM themselves admitted and combined that with *other* people's reports of their Superhubs needing hard reset or replaced after the upgrade.

I'm the same in that regard - with R30, I'm ready for that device and I'd have greater confidence that my eventual 100 meg service won't be spoiled by a dud modem.

Indeed. Looks like VM 100mb and BT 80mb will be reaching my area around the same time. When it comes to high download speed and
practically unlimited usage, VM can't be beaten. As long as I can use it in conjunction with another service for my other needs, which I can't till the Superhub does passthrough.
Deceptive marketing aside, there *are* things VM are good at, but this Superhub business is the worst I've seen in a long time. The only positive reports I've heard of it are from people not using it as a hub or not not doing anything beyond the bare basics. At the end of the day I don't and never will want a router, hub or any other faffy consumer "managed" service. I want an internet connection, over which I can send and receive IP data without it being messed with by some crappy device in the middle I have no control over. I still see the Superhub as utterly unneccessary and technically pointless, and am glad I've never had to go near one in "hub" mode and hopefully never will.
