To thenry, I'd say that VM have understood at long last the risk associated with using just one SH supplier whose pedigree has so badly let them down. Much too late - and they'll never admit it - but the Huawei addition, stated in this forum a couple of months ago BTW, is the evidence of that fact. As ever, they misunderstand the mistrust people have in the 480 SH, but in all fairness, we have to see what R30 produces.

VM have chosen their partners; there would be commercial reasons to a significant extent and I suspect (opinion) that the SH went out in it's wretched state last year because they couldn't get any more Ambits.

IMO, VM's big mistake was not first putting in a vanilla EuroDOCSIS 3 gateway and then doing the SH properly.

Another mistake (opinion) was not validating a paid for standalone modem from day 1.

VM come out of this with very little if any credit. There is no admission that they got it wrong (fact) - and boy did they get it wrong.

We all hope they've learned from this episode and in future will put the customer at VM's heart.

Why did the ambits stop?
