Using the latest wireless ‘N’ technology, our Virgin Media Super Hub gives you a fantastic range and fewer blackspots. Top that off with the most advanced and secure wireless encryption technology we could lay our hands on and you stay secure and connected, wherever you are.
Against that, the suffering consumer will call it a "Dud". And with good cause.
Modem mode was added at R30 to alleviate that dudness and it comes at a high cost for the user who has to shell out £60 or more for a router to do what VM claims for the SH.
So a sympathetic degree of understanding is necessary towards customers who chose to call the thing a "dud".

This is very true and you make an excellent point. I would still say that anyone comparing it to JUST a modem though is missing the point a bit but you're right that it shouldn't be that way.
