Cable Forum - View Single Post - Superhub The All New Super Hub 2AC from virgin media, Did we mention its as bad as the 1st

CJS23 · 21-09-2014, 04:35

I have the Superhub 2ac on 152mbps fibre.

I struggle to get over 25mbps wired reliably on known good equipment.

I have a Realtek RTL8168B/8111B PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Adapter on a Gigabyte EP35C-DS3R (Socket 775) mobo

I have tried all the driver settings I can think of but Windows 7 x64 still reckons my link speed is 100mbps

My Realtek driver version is 7.88.617.2014 dated 17/06/2014 and it is a Realtek Signed Driver

On the Router I have a flashing orange LED and on a the PC end it's a solid green and flashing orange LED.

My wireless is 160mbps d/l

This is dodgy Router firmware.

To humour Virgin I have ordered a CAT6 cable and a PCI-e x1 Gigabit NIC but I am convinced it will make no difference.

Seems to me that there is an issue with certain NIC chipsets and some / all of these Router's firmware.
