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

Virgin are currently piloting a new version of firmware for the Hub 3 with a small group of customers.
Virgin are also running a trial related to this.

yup, and that is why I insisted on keeping my ambit 300 all the way up to 152mbits. I was forced onto a shub2 (which I was expecting and didn't mind) when I upgraded to 200mbits.

Re: SHUB3 Puma Bug - TBB BQM Improvement
James_W on the VM Community Forum said it was trial firmware - in an enigmatic way!

I heard some people that are not on the trial have it on the VM forums.

Re: SHUB3 Puma Bug - TBB BQM Improvement
Yeah loads of "normal" customers (not on the trial) seem to have got it too, wouldn't surprise me if this wasn't intended and someone at Virgin messed up with the MACs they sent the trial firmware to.

Phaps they were used to using windows instead of MACS .

Martin_D has actually cleared up why this is:

There's two separate test groups - those that opted in and those that are piloting it.
And those that opted in but still haven't got it (i.e. me).

Re: SHUB3 Puma Bug - TBB BQM Improvement
They finally sent out the email yesterday telling the trial people they are on the new firmware, only a week or so after it dropped.

Re: SHUB3 Puma Bug - TBB BQM Improvement
Any news on an update for the CGNV4?
I've had a pre-emptive outage notification sent to me recently from VMB - for an hour in the morning early in March and wondered if it was related (not that it's a proper fix to the problem!).

Re: SHUB3 Puma Bug - TBB BQM Improvement
The March date you have been given is likely to roll out the firmware to help correct the poor performance with static IP addressing on the VMB network. Following the successful trial they are rolling it out in batches to all business customers with the Hitron box. The new version is 4.5.10.173-UPC
