They did this on a previous beta as well, but instead of unlocking it they sent a new superhub out.

Wow that seems pretty wasteful unless they couldn't figure out the problem at the time. Still they could have saved themselves the thousands of pounds it must have costed to send out replacements!

Re: Firmware R37
I was an R36 Beta tester and I've rebooted a few times up to now but still stuck on R36.

They said on the VM forum that R37 might take a few days for it to filter through to all previous R36 beta testers. I guess you just have to keep trying.

Sorry to quote my own post but this is an update. When I woke up the next day the wireless was pants. After many tweeks I decide to take the SHUB off auto (was using Ch1) and selected Ch13. Bingo massive improvement and back to 30+Megs download, 3megs upload and sub 20ms ping.
Been ok since.

Re: Firmware R37
Finally got R37 last night. Feels like a bit of an anti climax now.

I don't think auto has ever worked as expected.
IIRC my superhub was always on Ch.1 when auto was used.
As Ch.1 was the most congested channel I assumed that the auto setting was yet another superhub feature that worked ass backwards.  Or maybe didn't work at all
