You can doubt my motives as much as you want. I know them, and I know what I posted was correct.

A new gateway is desperately required. I'll draw everyone's attention to this piece of disinformation from VM talking to The Register:
I can't quote it verbatim for copyright reasons but the VM spokesman said in relation to people going out to buy a router that this was a decision for those people because the problem was with the SH firmware not the hardware!
Jeez! How much more insensitive to customer misery of the current SH can VM be? And VM's statement ignores the fact that the wireless hardware is too weak to meet their advertised claims. So it is the hardware too.

The spokesman is right. It is the customer's decision if they want to buy a router. However, that does not remove VM's obligation to ensure that this combined router/modem (that they are forcing on any customer who decides to upgrade) works. Regardless of whether the firmware or hardware is at fault.
Having said that, I'd rather have two devices that do their assigned jobs well, rather than one that does both but to a mediocre level.
