Re: 30M minimum by end of 2012

Yeah its simply a case VM have chose to stop supporting the device hence no new firmware. I find peters argument flawed because the cost of fixing the superhub firmware is more then likely a lot more money than simply making a firmware to add 4 DS channels. VM made a business decision to simplify the kit customers have (dumb it down), I doubt it had anything to do with the vmng300 been incapable, the dir615 probably had a bigger factor as that only has 100mbit ports. I also expect cost came into it as well and netgear probably gave them a good price for the superhub vs a gigabit dlink router and the vmng300 combination.
