which I very much doubt will be enabled. VM don't seem to like spending time on non-service critical features. If they can't be bothered to enable 3rd party dns servers (which will already be available in stock fw) then they defo aren't going to be bothered with usb. The sad thing is that they need to realise that if they really want customers to take the shub seriously and use it then they need to permit features such as print servers, media servers and shared network storage etc otherwise customers will just see it a very fast modem and still look to 3rd party routers for their needs.
Why would Virgin care about people using the hub as anything other than a modem? Adding more features just means a bigger support scope as far as Virgin is concerned. If they had their way, we'd still be using standalone modems but they have to concede to "free wireless" in an all-in-one device because that's what the competition is doing.
