Re: Superhub & Virgin Media Business
It has been embarassing for VM for sure. And now to cause them to withdraw their new business broadband services is very bad. But I have to say VMB have done the right thing here as they don't want to make the situation worse. However for business services it makes me think they should ditch the superhub and go with a Cisco device.
The business superhub runs different firmware, and so far I have been hit by two problems with it - high latency & jitter compared with the older 10 MB/s business service I had on a Scientific Atlanta modem.
The other problem is the MTU size issue, which actually might not be a Superhub issue at all, but a limitation of using an L2TP tunnel. However setting MTU to 1460 on the router behind the superhub does workaroudn the problem, so I no longer get delayed email.
Hopefully VMB will push Netgear hard to get new firmware out for these devices so they can start to sell the new services again.
