Once upon a time you got something from Telewest, it worked 100%, no messing about and usually beyond expectation, as my old modem was going on the fritz and I was due a contract change I thought I would renegotiate for a TiVo as well as get my networking brought into this generation. As a result I got lumbered with a gnats hair of cable, leaving my superhub able to only go in a single position and the removal of my old Dlink router which would have come in quite handy.
What gets me is that I am on my second superhub and it has only been 10 days, surely by rolling out bad hardware, bad firmware and an inability to fix it quickly VM have created not only a huge negative view on their service as a whole, but surely a ton of extra work for CSR's and Tech Support that was not really needed.
Fingers crossed that R36 allows me to use my wifi in the room above or below my router (a few feet and wooden floor) without dropping out or such a low signal that my mobile network is faster and more reliable...
On a related note, have any of you managed to setup a wireless repeater using the superhub and another router (DD-WRT perhaps?) I have been trying for a while and cannot get an external net connection

I have had mine about 10 days too and it's terrible!! My biggest problem has been with SSH and FTP session timing out in the most ungraceful way. Leaving the connected application hung for several minutes.
What I've done (like many others) is put it in modem mode and got my old router out!!
Just waiting on R36 to roll.....
