Just got the SuperHub 3

Back with Virgin Media after leaving them a couple of years ago. Engineer came around this morning and said I was the first he had given one of these to. Not seen a thread here with anyone saying they had one yet, so figured if you guys had any questions fire away and I'll try answer.

Re: Just got the SuperHub 3

You're not the first to have one.. Just that those who had them first couldn't talk about it due to a trial NDA

Read the trial thread in the news section

You put it next to a subwoofer? Well, there's an old joke involving a Sub and a PS3 but I wont go into it! :p

Anyway, let us know how you get on with it! Have you played in the UI yet to see how it compares with your previous equipment?

Re: Just got the SuperHub 3

Why oh why is the damn thing white?

Black is a much better choice of colour.

Yeah it's next to the subwoofer for now, I won't be using the wireless on this just yet, so should be fine. Will eventually switch to modem mode and hook it into my DLink Router. Just going to give it a couple of weeks before cancelling my Plusnet service.

The UI looks pretty slick, I really can't remember the superhub 2 well but there doesn't appear to be anything amazingly new on this. I did try to change the DHCP scope from 192.168.0.0/24 to 192.168.1.0/24 but it doesn't allow you to change that. You can only specify a range within 192.168.0.0/24.

Going around the house I did notice the wireless signal was better. I used to get dropouts on the superhub2 but not with this so far.Early days though. The signal strength and throughput are better all around.

edit: Don't see the option of 'Respond to ICMP echo requests sent to WAN IP' , either it's been removed or I am blind.

Re: Just got the SuperHub 3

All my other tech is black, so I wouldn't want a daft white box ruining the look of all my tech.

Wonder if there'd be much demand for offering a choice of colours. A lot of "minimalist" modern homes are styled in mostly-white.

It is not an option at this early stage, good luck!

I would not be bothered what colour it was.

The performance is more important to me.
