Nobody was talking about 10 to 30. 20 to 30 costs £30 right now.

Funny part is i can upgrade to 30 megs today but they cannot do 20 its seems and i need a new Modem No i dont want a new modem this one replaced 6 months ago and i was told its ok for 20MEGS Cant move it to find model number but its Small black and works fine. no HUB please

I know many people complain about the Superhub so, to redress the balance a tiny bit, we've had it for something like 14 months now and haven't had any problems with it. It just sits there, doing its thing and all I need to do is to dust it now and then.

And since you can now add your own modem to it, maybe it is time to rethink?

Re: PHONE CALL Speed increase

I think the eventual availability of modem mode removed the last reason to avoid the Superhub apart from its size, power consumption, bright lights, and strange connector positioning all of which are either fairly trivial or can be circumvented in some way.

With the fix to the memory leak you can even use it as a wifi router so long as your needs are very basic and you can position it such that the lack lustre wifi performance allows best coverage.

Re: PHONE CALL Speed increase

what has slipped is there will be a 30meg package after the speed increases. Because ben slipped my current config is a new one I got early.

Since its been stated all tiers below 100mbit will be at least doubled then its logical to assume at least 'some' 10meg users will be bumped to 30meg, probably the ones accepting a superhub.

Re: PHONE CALL Speed increase

I used to avoid the Superhub because you couldn't run Openwrt on it.
