Quite a few people who claimed their Superhub was flawless were also running an additional router to extend the range......

Because they lived in a 4 bedroomed house which had over a dozen wifi devices in it, and to extend the range to the rear garden (meaning they could be over 30 metres away from the hub and not be concerned about drop-off.

... whereas I found that if I strayed more than 3m from mine my phone would switch over to the FON AP I run on an outside antenna.

Did you try the pinhole reset? Might save you a day waiting for the tech.

Re: R30 - Superhub R29 is no more....

To all those moaning about the Superhub in this thread, remember that last time we winged they nerfed our 5Ghz wireless channels by 78%. Please don't push it or we may lose 5Ghz mode all together.

Keep them sweet please, or we'll all have to pay. The Superhub is just fine the way it is.

Unhappy Re: R30 - Superhub R29 is no more....

Is there any way to know the plan for the locations roll out? I'm in London and thought it would have been done already but still waiting... the support people were not able to help in any way except to make us do a pin hole reset and told us to try again later...

Re: R30 - Superhub R29 is no more....

you should have it mate, I'm just outside of London and have it. have you tried the pin hole method? if you have try removing the cable feed from the SH and ethernet cables as well as disconnecting wireless connections.. reset via the pin hole then power down for a few minutes.. connect the cable feed then power up only and leave it be for 5 minutes, it should reboot itself during the process at some point.

Re: R30 - Superhub R29 is no more....

I got R30 last night about 11pm, the modem rebooted, was offline for about 10 mins then came back, I checked the status pages on it, and yep, R30.

Then about 11:05pm it dropped the internet on me. The LAN side was still working, but no connection to the internet. Rebooted it, didn't work, did a pinhole reset. Didn't help any. Unplugged it and went to bed, intending to call it in in the morning.

Plugged it n in the morning, and it seems to be working OK.

How can it be a myth if there are all these people on here saying that they have it or are you calling us all liars

BTW note the up time in that picture, No drops, no issues, does what i want it to do.

I was part of the trial and that's why it shows 8 days
