Just come off the phone to complain about the superhub is with its wireless ( or lack of it ) signal, and got told that they were releasing a superhub 2 on the 15th April...
So, has anyone else been told this and what can we expect?
Hopefully not another poor product with no FW??

I am that desperate I will nominate myself!
It cant be any worse....can it?
Thanks - where in the same area - i can drop my old one off to you if you like for parts!!
whats the difference between super hub and super hub2?
I guess just no2 .
FYI i called CS and said the superhub wifi was poo and they credited the cost of the new router i brought onto my account.
this was over a year ago and they proberly won't do that anymore
Yes it can be. The Superhub works fine in modem mode (at least it does for me) and so you can choose the router you want. (I actually don't have a wireless router at all, I have a wired only router (history) and a WAP and have no good reason to change this).
Does the Superhub2 have modem mode? If it doesn't then it is definitely worse for many of us.
I'm using mine without any issues. I've got my PC, PS3, TiVo and server all hard wired to it and phones and ipad all working wirelessly.
Maybe I'm just lucky, but surely that's what it is intended for?
Maybe because a lot of us dont have any problems with it :rolleyes:
When I see posts of people who have had 3 sent them and none of them worked properly, I have to ask myself who or what is the common denominator
If it works fine for the individual then there is no problem. However some of us do want to use a separate router for a variety of reasons so it is important that there is a "modem mode". Can anyone confirm whether SH2 has this?
Ditto. Not had a single problem with it, maybe people with the problems just live in massive houses
Not just large, it depends on the wall construction and other things, siting of the hub is very important.
For myself the Superhub is in a very poor position but the separate router (or WAP in my case) can be placed anywhere with Ethernet access.
The new hub looks fine though, time will tell if it performs as good as it looks.
The next generation Super Hub is our all new combined modem and router designed specifically for Virgin Media customers. Features include:
• Dual-band dual concurrent WiFi
• Improved wireless range and stability
• Re-oriented unit with innovative antenna array
• Additional antenna
But this is if their is a new one or not.

That doesn't say whether it has a modem mode or not. If not then they need a separate modem model.
double natting as its sometimes referred to.
