Seen a few comments about their new hub. The wireless side shouldn't affect me as the bandwidth intensive stuff will be hard wired and my wireless devices are mostly used within a short range. Just hope they don't have firmware issues in the same was as VM have had and still apparently have.
The best thing to do, as always, is use your own router.

You can now get your sky username /password from the SR-101 via wireshark for use in a router running DD-WRT or you can just piggyback your own router in the SR-101's DMZ.

It all just works

Quite boring when compared with the adventure of switching on a VM service.
Will it still be working or not: Will it need rebooting or not: How many TV channels are down today. Is email still working: ETC. Yeah! I miss all that stuff like I miss a hole in my head.
