Channel bonding is just a way to spread the load over the network, its not the essential component to high speeds. It just helps. So yeah, the VMNG300 is a capable little bugger, but with VM's network being so heavily utilized they need to spread that load which is why the Superhub is it's replacement.

I do remember seeing for myself that the SH had a higher average latency than the VMNG300. I wonder if modem mode has changed that with the routing functions being disabled?
