I have the same setup here you need - you need to call VM Business and have them activate the routed SUBNET option for you. you have a static single address so the Superhub still performs NAT. If you switch to the routed subnet option you get a block of addresses and the Superhub is no longer in NAT mode. This way you get to assign a public routable IP address to equipment sitting on the LAN side of the superhub and can terminate your VPN tunnel there. I do this with a Cisco 892 router behind the Business superhub.

In terms of modem mode - I gather from my contact in VMB they are about to roll out a firmware upgrade to the business superhubs to enable that.

Out of interest did you get a Superhub 1 or 2 with your new business service?

I have a Superhub 1 running BUS_V2.37.06, however the GUI regularly locks up so suspect it is faulty. I am wondering if I call in for a replacement whether I'd get a SH1 or 2... Not sure if they are using any SH2s for the business service just yet.

I gather there are also plans to launch a 100 Mb/s business service later this year.
