I just want nothing to do with any of the models of Sh1tHub. They've all been nothing but dreadful when I've used them. The reason for the original post was that I didn't know the lengths I would have to go to to make a non-standard work. If it was a simple MAC address fudge that is easy enough to do but it turns out that it's a lot more involved, so I'm looking at other options.
I understand that the reason for the SH in the first place is because VM don't want to support the many varieties of router available. I totally understand that. What I find distasteful is that the CPE they the supply is utter crap, and that their solution is to use...their box as a modem. So, they don't want me to use my own kit, but the offered solution to their kit being terrible is...for me to use my own kit. This leaves them no further forward than me using a modem with my own router, except I would bet real cash money on the SH costing VM considerably more than a clean modem would.

"Because Maths" is not trying to help. It's not trying anything. It's successfully being a smart arse. The second answer given by the same person was perfect, which I acknowledged.
