Re: can we really write it off?
It's really more a case of needing to do something then checking if the router supports it than looking through the features and seeing what you can do with them.
For example from memory the Superhub didn't support port translation but that won't bother you one iota if you don't see a need for using that option and cause you to curse if you need it but it isn't supported.
One feature it may have which the SH doesn't is QoS - playing with that is a great way for the unwary to bork their speeds. Similarly fiddling with a fully fledged router firewall should see folks who are just dabbling lose their internet as easy as pie.
There's plenty more ways to screw things up too.
This is why VM limit the features on their CPE and why the Superhub suits lots of people who aren't geeks.
You've bought a router that does some stuff you needed that the Superhub didn't support. No need to feel you need to use features that are there but which you don't need.
