Hey... mouselike.org, there's something I haven't heard of in a while... I used to use your SIP testing server all the time!

Anyway. Whether the Superhub works for you is rather hit-and-miss. There is no universally reliable way to make it work for someone if it is currently causing issues on the business service.

Bridge mode has recently appeared on the Superhub business firmware but is still officially unsupported. I'm not aware of anyone having actually used it successfully. It would, however, be a universally reliable way of resolving the Superhub's problems if it did work, like on the residential service.

VM don't use PPPoE on cable. The L2TP thing is relevant only if you have a routed, fixed-IP subnet from VM, as that is how the service works. Theoretically if you put the modem in bridge mode you would have to create the tunnel yourself to establish connectivity. To date however, I'm not aware of anyone actually using it successfully. It is merely theoretical, given that thus far VM have refused to give out the connection details we need to actually set up a tunnel.
