Superhub R36 Firmware Beta Test (was R35) - Page 35

Jumping · 13-07-2012, 22:06

Got the new firmware, but can't seem to get any connection info. Im running it in modem mode but the advanced setting button is greyed out, does that mean you can't see connection info when in modem mode?

LOL so logical that you cant see it logged in...thanks for letting me know. Think I remember reading it now from when you guys where trialling it but guess it never stuck in my poor old brain.

Noticed its still classed as beta too.
Boot Code Version 2.3.0beta7

Always good to roll out beta to the masses :P

They did the same with Tivo and released a Release Candiate rather than a final version.

here my graph
http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/35...-post1897.html
11am i reboot modem by my self and update came then router reboot it self once the firmware applied
SH at modem mode + draytek 2920n
No password change so... no reset
As you see with graph it carry on the monitor be as before
Jitter 0 all morning
After 6pm, having more time i decided to do a master reset to help if is any bug
Note after reset 6pm the blue,jitter gone up.Ok i know is not lot but here my point
jitter now is varrying from 1-3 all evening and till now morning while with firmware r30 was 0-1ms
I have reboot router/SH,done power cycle,nothing(all down/up channels stay locked at the same channels and MHZ as r30)
Any one notice any difference for better in the new firmware?
Will report at VM forums
Thanks

Firmware Update applied @3pm yesterday..Update seams to have made a difference to latency...my connection always was stable but now looking @ the graph bellow it seams to have leveled out quite a bit....so far so good

It's stupid you can't now access advanced settings if you got SuperHub in modem only mode.

thenry · 15-07-2012, 01:42

why do you need advanced settings in modem mode? connection are on the login page, you don't need to even log in

but in the advance settings that was available with r30, was only SH status,connection info,change password and event log
http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/35446137-post348.html

are still all present with r36 but in 2 different sections
top right via router status tab (you must not log in)
then when log in is the SH status in the middle
.....and here is the downside...must log in / log out to see them

But i guess coming an engineer out is better ... as for the status tab not log in and passwords needs, so he/she can access easy the modem power levels

Had R36 since am Friday the 13th. What a vast improvement. No drop outs, and a vast increase in wireless range, and wireless speed. Credit were its due. Thumbs up Virgin.
One very happy customer.

Got new f/w today... don't like it... my wifi n speed has dropped from 300Mbps to 130Mbps!!!!

I also am now unable to add a reserved IP address in the dhcp server if it is connected to the network (thank fook my phone is wifi!)

It totally wiped my settings when it updated (thanks for wiping out all my port forwarding!)

And I've just notest it thinks I've downloaded 3GB in the last hour!!!! All I have running other than my AV is firefox!!! It better not reduce my speed!

Not happy with it.... no doubt I'll find more!

HOW DO I DOWNGRADE IT????

Bushuu · 16-07-2012, 01:20

I had set it back but at the time OBSS was ghosted not this time logging in thank you I'm back to 300Mbps but I still don't like it...... I've apparently downloaded 9.5GB now!!!!

I'm running a clean install of Win7 with Kaspersky IS and just firefox!! how the fook have downloaded 6GB in just over an hour with that setup!

Again....

Thank You thenry
