And I am happy to concede that some people have some problems with the SH.
"rebooting the superhub 8 times in 24 hours"? Seriously. That's terrible. But it is certainly not my experience. Mine has barely been rebooted at all since I got it a few months ago.

I think the BS comes from implying that the superhub, as a router, is as good as you can get when clearly (for some) it isn't.

It's the "for some" that's the problem though. If it's fine for the majority then, given that all marketing is hype to a certain extent, I can't see any issues with VM's comments on the SH.

However, I think it would be unreasonable to expect VM to supply CPE that was on a par with off the shelf equipment costing an average weeks wage.

Sorry. Lost me there

I accept that I haven't used any of my collection of superhubs for many months and the firmware upgrades might have sorted some of the issues I was having. BUT the inbuilt inability to run concurrent 2.4 & 5GHz networks together makes it a second-rate non-starter to me.

And how common is this usage? (Genuine question. Not looking for an argument
)

With my Asus router I get a stronger 5GHz signal outside on the patio than the superhub gave on 2.4GHz, which to me questions the validity of the VM claims regarding 'best wireless performance'.

Fair enough.
