instead of getting locked into an endless argument, i would say that there are problems that some superhubs have, and some dont, there are also problems which affect all superhubs.
as a quick example, everyone had the problem with pingtest.net reporting packet loss, which was the ip flood detection picking it up as a packet flood. and as an example of problems which affect only a few, the spontaneous reboots seem to only be affecting some but not others.
these are only vague examples, as i dont want to get into a separate argument over what works and what doesnt, but basically, as far as i am concerned, the superhub problems dont affect the ambit 300, so dont affect me. I post in this thread as a mutual poster, i am neither for or against the superhub, so if anyone calls me biased, they can carry on becuase i will laugh

Maybe it's a super-secret forum...

Re: Superhub Firmware Beta Test
I don't think anyone has it. I had the same PM asking if I'd be prepared to take R27 as was mentioned before and replied OK on Thursday but I'm still on R26.
The announcement of the pre trial came when people in the trial firmware section started asking what had happened to the early May promise. My assumption is that they still don't have anything good enough even for beta and stalled (or at least tried to stall) criticism with this "pre trial trial" announcement.
If anybody has R27 shoot me down in flames please - until then I class it as vapourware,

Re: Superhub Firmware Beta Test
Yeah I saw that post, they did say pre test over the next week so hopefully those that have been selected get it tomorrow and the rest of us beta testers get it the following week.

Re: Superhub Firmware Beta Test
the first group of testers are probably VM staff, who will have an internal feedback system, not using the forums

Re: Superhub Firmware Beta Test
I thought their internal test feedback box was the recycling bin?

Re: Superhub Firmware Beta Test
I was specifically told friday but I guess it got delayed.
I asked for a date as I told them I had to plug in the superhub first ready.

it should push to your hub anyway, whether its plugged in or not, the firmware gets sent out based on mac address

Re: Superhub Firmware Beta Test
it doesnt get pushed out if the modem is offline at the time of the push. Its obviously a manual process. Which is also why if you do a reset settings it reverts back to the non beta firmware.
