Only one happy with 100mb ?

[mrluke2012]

After reading lots of threads on this forum , i was starting to think i maybe was doomed after getting Virgin media installed in Feb?

Heres my conclusion

100mbit is Great , i get between 89-104mbit . Only issue i have had is the router side of the superhub is a pile of rubbish , i replaced it with a cheapy £10 Second hand wireless N router off of ebay and now works perfect . ( no more wireless drop outs ! )

TV , catchup is great ! has stopped working a few times for our box's . But comes back eventually . Normal TV is fine and always seems to work .

Phone .. Apart from giving us some dodgy number which some scummy debt ridden person obviously had before us ( we got a number of calls from debt collections , Indians telling us there from MS and other randoms) . It works fine and a no interference like our BT line did !

Thumbs up from me ! ( at the moment lol ! )

Luke.

am sorry but how does someone being in debt make them scummy ?? 

Have you never had any kind of finance ? are you a millionaire ?

I didnt say she was scummy because she was in debt , i said she was scummy and in debt .

Any way back on subject .

<3 you Virgin

I am  extreamly happy with the 100meg connection and the superhub

Yes, happy with 100mb here as well, however with modem and my own Router combo !!

TV glitches the odd time, but mostly great

I'm also very happy with the 100 meg. Can't comment on the superhub as I don't have one. Speed varies between 95 and 104 meg

My 100mb works great when my mum's partner isn't on the connection, thankfully that doesn't happen often and i look forward to my 120mb

what I would do is login to the hub and ban his ip from using the net hahaha JK

but what routers/hubs do you all use? I find it so much easier to use the super hub and I have the beta R36 firmware and it runs so smoothly, plus I love having a hub rather then a modem and a router.. much less wires and hassle imo

Had it for a week now with no issues at all. 12MB download speeds pretty much constantly, 104Mb or so showing in Speedtest... fantastic speeds.

I've heard the superhub is a bit naff and, while i haven't had any issues yet, i'm definitely upgrading to a better router asap (if only for dual band support as my flat mate's laptop doesn't support the 5ghz line and he's too bone idle to upgrade).

All i will say is that i think people get confused between MB and Mb. People can't honestly expect 100 megaBYTE download speeds can they? A 10GB file in 10 seconds? Now THAT would be worth any amount of money.

Anyone have any suggestions for decent dual-band routers that work well with 100Mb cable?

also, does anyone know if i would see an increased speed over wireless using a 5ghz line rather than 2.4? I know 5ghz is shorter range but all user's of the superhub in our house are sat within 5 feet of it XD
