Yes I believe it's possible but with Modem Mode (R27 Firmware) just around the corner why bother. Just hang on for a little while longer would be my plan.

I'm doing what you describe currently and it works very well. Of course, it'll be better when VM release the bridge mode update.

Agreed
Quite ridiculous that it is so bright. Even in daylight it is quite distracting if, like me, your hub is on the desk next to the monitor.

I have the hubs light's covered by the "Installing Your Virgin Media Superhub" Booklet that was included in the self install kit.

Just another somewhat unsatisfactory feature of the superhub that virgin has forced upon it's BB subscribers.
