I agree but this isn't going to happen as the mass-market now expects a hub.

Maybe a strategy would be to develop a new business orientated modem-router as this market is not interested in a hub. I know that the reason they have moved from modems to the business variant of the super-hub (BSHUB?) is so that they can provide static addressing via L2TP for business customers. I cannot see why this cannot be a hardware device that focuses on core functionality at the expense of consumer orientated hub features such as firewalls and wireless. This could be then become an requestable option to more technically minded non-business customers who would rather provide their own solution.

The issue for VM would be that technical support for the consumer market would have to handle two devices and they are clearly attempting to consolidate onto a single standard device.
