LOL sorry about that, i just wanted to make a thread telling people its not as bad as you read on here, because i'm sure there are others like me who move to a cable area and then read up about the service they will be getting befor the install which in reality is not even half as bad as it seems when you read some threads on here 
also just noticed, if you sort this forum by view count this is nearly one of the most viewed topics on the whole board LOL

Re: Superhub is nowhere near as bad as people say!
I have just switched my camera in the garden from a homeplug to Netgear wifi adapter. It connected upto the superhub easily however initially it was even worse than the homeplug. It needs a 1 mbit connection for each users and on the adapter it was stopping for upto 20 secs at a time. On the homeplug the longest outage I have seen is 8 secs.
However it is now working perfectly since dropping the shub to one channel instead of two. I am using channel 11 which some have reported problems with.
I will have to revise my opinion slightly

Re: Superhub is nowhere near as bad as people say!
Evidently VM aren't too keen on the Netgear Superhub given they are replacing the hardware with another manufacturer.

Now how many people thought the superhub would dumped, oddly enough my earlier posts have always said it was here to stay which strangely enough is happening.

Well, a Superhub is staying, but this Superhub is getting replaced. The existing ones will, of course, remain and hopefully once the trained lower primates at Netgear have had a few more months to randomly bash their keyboards the high priority stability bugs will be gone.

they wont, the VMNG300 only supports 4 downstream channels, and the 100mb service, in due course will use 8 bonded channels, which the modem wont work with
