Modem mode and your own wireless router is the only answer. But think about the router you buy and read up on its wireless legs. For an upstairs/downstairs thing, there are variables. A router with an external antenna pair/trio would to a better job than one with internal antennae.
Hope that helps.

Yeah, the orientation of this thing is critical, just a few cm one way or the other can make all the difference. Even standing a reflective surface at right angles to the end where the lights are can increase coverage. Not distance. I like ****ing about like that. A leftover from my RHam days when you had to sort your own problems.
Or as the man says get a decent router and put the junk into modem mode.

Not related to the OP but can we close this thread now because the nay sayers have had their say, with a few notable exceptions and it will just turn into another 'the superhub is crap, no it isn't debate'

Oh dear! touchy, touchy, I suppose the notable exeptions will come on and tell us they have coverage when they where in Birmingham, and their Shub
was in London.
