selected beta testers, then I assume later all beta testers. This one seems more conservative rollout than older releases.

The only roll out I want to see is a steam roller to roll over the whole lot of them!

Even the ones that are working fine for their users?

No one seems to have posted about how they find the update over on the Beta test forum, unless they have set up another more exclusive forum for them.

Are these superhubs any good?

I hear a lot of good things about them

If your happy with average, I want the superhubs to be better than fine, they should be "super"

Obviously there is something wrong if the "hub" is better than the "superhub"

No, I am happy with 'working'.

I sympathise with those who have issues, but I know quite a few people (neighbours and friends) who are happy with the SuperHub - 'one size fits all' answers (from either side) don't help.

yeah the superhub works absolutely perfectly, thats why theres never been a complaint about it, and why they have never had to update the firmware

No-one is saying there aren't any issues with it, which is why the firmware updates are happening

However you are making out like broadband issues only started when the SuperHub came along

At somepoint someone is going to have an issue with any hardware supplied, it's the nature of technology. At the same time lots of others will have no issue with the same kit

I expect the vast majority just use it to connect one wired PC to the net.

My Daughter, for instance, who is on BT uses her HH to connect a wired PC, a wireless net radio and a wireless notebook but has never considered, and is proabably not aware of, configuring a LAN.

Folks using the superhub for light browsing and email with the example configs would probably be quite happy with it.

However, in spite of all that, it is still an extremely poorly performing wireless router with limited features.

Hopefully Bridge Mode will make it worthwhile my buying a fully featured gigabit 'N' wireless router that actually does what it say's on the tin.

And there lies the problem I and other members of staff have said MANY times that there very well could be issues with it. I said only the other day that i understand that there ARE issues with it for some users. Then along someone comes and again says that WE ALL are claiming that there are NO problems with it. Maybe i should put this post in my sig for the next time we are accused of bending the truth.

It is really starting to **** me off all these attacks at members of staff over the super hub

Thank you for proving my point......

i think my signature is a fair representation on how much I care for the matter. As i no longer use the superhub, it no longer bothers me how good/bad it is. I can sit on here and argue until christmas, but it wont change anything in terms of the superhub, it will probably result in further infractions

**Hugh** · 15-05-2011, 13:17

Your sig is true for some superhubs, but not for all.....
