Any that the CEO office may send out will be sent from remaining stock within Virgin Media and packaged and sent by the CEO team themselves
There has been no new order placed for more to be made
Customer Relations don't have any way of sending them (unless they have some in a cupboard somewhere)

Re: Superhub Firmware Beta Test
ahh my mistake, I didnt know you had direct access to VM's orders. I guess you guys arent just call centre rep's then?
It doesnt matter what stock is been used tho if the CEO office is sending them out then it means they are supplying them. If VM runs out and decide its worth ordering more to prevent customers leaving (probably will be a yes as they do anything to keep customers) then more will be ordered new. You can deny it but I know will happen.

Re: Superhub Firmware Beta Test
The beta firmware has steadied my Superhub massively. Not perfect, but a step in the right direction! Wireless seems a lot better, which is my biggest plus. Wireless frequencies round here are extremely congested (InSSIDer lists 16 networks available), so a sturdy wifi is essential.

Re: Superhub Firmware Beta Test
The guy from the CEO office who rang me said they had a few vmng300's dotted around the country. He said that they were collecting them all up. He also wanted to know in detail the problems I was having with the superhub before he would let me have a modem. He was a very nice chap

Basically agreeing with my post.
When they're gone they're gone though.
Makes no difference to me as I have one but I'm off to infinity next week but, if I was staying with VM and I had a modem problem the fact that they would be unable to change like for like (ie Modem only) would make me change anyway.

Likely that this is a placebo effect as the only changes made in the beta firmware was to fix the IP Flood detection mode and to allow SIP telephones to work.

Re: Superhub Firmware Beta Test
well the 2nd modem turned up, 2nd line said it wasnt a superhub but guess what it was? Just awaiting CEO guys to sort this out, everyone else is incompetent at the moment, really poor service from tech support.

As I have said quite a few times no one from Technical Support has ever been able to send out a VMNG300 modem because whenever someone insists they can do it either a standard modem or now even the Superhub goes out every time.
If these modems are available then the person saying they are must ensure that its correct in the first place and take ownership to ensure the correct item is sent.
These modems are now as rare as hens teeth.
