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

Are you sure? Still no update from Mark Wilkin, 6pm now, doubt he's going to bother this evening, even though he was online about 15 mins ago...although, there's always tomorrow, if they work weekends.

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

Hope so. Their must be a huge list of customers wanting to test already, if they keep it open any longer they might as well just release it.

Update from Mark Wilkins

Quote:
Our initial testing of R30 has been positive and we've seen no show stoppers so far. We're having a meeting on Tuesday to talk about ramping up the testing towards a full beta trial in the near future. We'll post an update on Tuesday once we know more.

Thankls

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

A meeting? Seriously, anyone would have thought they were planning a military operation. It's firmware.

It's getting even more ridiculous than it already is, more waiting? I've already gotten gandalfs beard from waiting for R29, now even more delays I may as well go and get myself a complete wizards costume to complete the look.

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

Why couldn't VM close the beta call yesterday and release it to all that signed up! Does this now mean we'll see an upgrade and a full upgrade to all SHs next week or will it be another few weeks so beta can overrun

They already have customers testing R30! no wait, "we're pre releasing the firmware so people can use their own hardware" erm are they forgetting about the wifi issues?

How many people have beta firmware in modem mode and how many are testing the superhub as a whole?

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

You appear to be under the misguided delusion that there is some professional planning involved in the beta testing. That certainly wasn't the case at all in the initial round which I took part in - nobody was asked to test anything specifically and feedback in the testers forum received no acknowledgement at all from anybody from VM. It was a complete and utter shambles imo and lead to the public release of an entirely untested R25 - a minor bug in the version being tested had been fixed but the major ones hadn't.

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

What a joke! Has VM got anyone part of firmware building or is it all on demand?

@ jinxed - any updates mate?

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

I signed up for the beta test and it looks like they pushed out R30 about 10-15 minutes ago.

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

Does the firmware upgrade reboot the SH? Does it matter I'm using the connection, will it interfere with VM upgrading my unit?

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

Apparently they are upgrading all the R29 testers and then the new signups..

http://community.virginmedia.com/t5/...11/td-p/677941

The upgrade will cause a reboot. I'm not sure if they'll check if you are using it first or just press ahead with it regardless.

It does state R29 Beta testers will get it first before rolling out to new sign ups.

Good news, we're pushing ahead with a full beta test for R30 today. We're working to upgrade all of our current R29 beta testers first and then everyone who's signed up to the most recent call for testers. Once our new beta testers have been upgraded we'll give them access to the beta test forum so they can post their feedback.
I have the new R30 now.
