Re: superhub 2
Fun will start when these lucky people start reporting their experiences!
BTW, the field engineers (with one exception) will know very little about the SH2 and its behaviours. The triallists on the forum, who've had it some 7 weeks now, will know and eagerly await the feedback!

I'm an IT Network Tech so very techie anyway so won't take me many mins to set it up myself and should be able to import my existing SH1 config if the format is still the same. I assume it would work as the config pages are pretty much just the same.
I'm happy to give my experiences after it's installed

Then you're very well placed to advise those who come back with their 1.01.19 questions!

All it took was a phone call for self install, so i am surprised they're not doing what they did for the trialists.

That's an interesting point. I haven't read every thread on the VM Trial Forum, but I don't recall anything about loading a SH1 config into a SH2. You news will likely be a first.

Re: superhub 2
Got one being delivered on Friday, self install.
Believe it or not I got mine through web help chat lol. Didn't even have to pick up the phone. No cost, not even postage.

Re: superhub 2
One quick question, does the SH2 still have the PPTP passthrough option listed under the firewall section of advanced settings?

That makes two of us, just tried a factory reset with no joy. Now I've got to go upstairs to get the password so I can put it back in modem mode  .
