Re: SHUB3 Puma Bug - TBB BQM Improvement

For what my opinion is worth, the Hub 3 stays unless a legal surprise occurs. The cost of replacing a million Hub 3s or whatever is beyond VM's means.

The next hub would be for DOCSIS 3.1.

Re: SHUB3 Puma Bug - TBB BQM Improvement

I would think that the vast majority of VM BB users have no idea what a Hub3 is.

They just know they have a black box that provides their internet, and it seems to work just fine.

there wasn't an issue before and the new firmware makes no difference either way and nor should it given the technical explanation which has been provided.

I’ve got numerous Consoles, Laptops, Smart Speakers and a NAS // Plex Server connected to my Hub3 and they run faultless... I get pretty good Wi-Fi range aswell!

(I disconnected my Netgear R7800 // Linksys WRT3200acm because they were a waste of electricity when the Hub3 does exactly the same job!)

The majority of 'normal' users won't have an issue with the Hub3 it does its intended purpose to get them on the internet wired/wireless, it is just users that want to play around with network settings or increase the wireless range that are not happy with it, although some gamers have said they have issue with it but other gamers say it is fine but that is the case for most ISP provided kit in my opinion.

My SH3 is awful at wireless. If one of us eats beans and lets rip the wireless dies on its backside.

I'd be shocked of the Hub 4.0 isn't DOCSIS3.1 and I'd be even more shocked if that didn't cause it to have even more problems than usual, even before the 3.1 upgrades to the network are deployed.

I slightly disagree. I agree that that is pretty much the current state of affairs atm (which is ok) but it wasn't when it came out. Remember they had those hourly disconnects if you were connected to a certain brand of UBR?

yup. The most frustrating thing for me though is the stinky attitude. I am very laid back and forgiving if something is a genuine mistake or happened by accident however VM seem to make bad decisions on purpose and their approach is money first and customers second. They make each shub on the cheap, do laughable trials, ignore errors/bugs/feedback and then send it out to the general customer base knowing it doesn't do what it needs to, sometimes even as a necessity, and if your connection doesn't work then who cares. I hate being screwed over and I would have switched isp years ago out of principle, the only saving grace is modem mode. I can't be doing with uncertainty and sitting down for a game thinking "am I going to get through this or is my shub going to have a spazz fit and my connection drop?"

Re: SHUB3 Puma Bug - TBB BQM Improvement

I remember the Superhub 1 didn't even have a modem mode when it first came out and they only put it in when loads of customers complained.

Are we clear on this? Is 9.1.116.603 a trial firmware or is it being rolled out?
