Superhub 2
Not my area of expertise, but one of the lads in the office just received a new Superhub 2 to test a load of stuff on. So can't be too long before they start rolling it out.

Re: Superhub 2
It will be interesting to see what BenMcr has to say about this (If he is allowed)!

It is Netgear
It does have Modem Mode
It's unmistakebly a Virgin Media design, follows the same design principles of the hub/ superhub. Vbox HD and Tivo.

I have a picture, but I'm afraid loyalty to the company that pays my wages prevents me from publishing it.
Like I say, think along the lines of what has come before, it's not a massive departure design wise.

The email for testers said it would be some time in February. Let's hope it's earlier

Let's hope it's later and they get it right this time, so it's a more interesting challenge to break it!

Re: Superhub 2
Pierre might be able to hint at the firmware version. Also a little screwdrive job to see if there are indeed 5 antennae inside would be useful.

And possibly cause him employment trouble as discussing the number of antennae could be considered discussing the capabilities of the device in a public forum.

Even the initial post revealing the device is out for testing could be seen in a poor light...

For a device that is being released to the general public, public knowledge is harmful how?
