Superhub installed with dynamic IP. Installer had a bit of a fiddle in the street cabinet as he checked signal levels. Ethernet between LAN port and WAN2 port of our Draytek Vigor 2920 dual WAN router as a straight swap for the old Cisco modem. Not even a router reboot and all works fine.

I've disabled the wireless, without any testing of it. No real need for it as the Superhub is on the wrong part of the network configuration to allow any wireless connected devices to obtain stuff from our LAN servers. It's for that reason that I'd suggest in many business locations the Superhub provides more functionality than is needed, and thus may be a tad more expensive to provide to customers than an alternative chocie of a SACM. Seems a shame that the Cisco modem, only a year old, is now confined to a spares shelf to gather dust.
