I have a 100mb package with Virgin, and have been with them for many years, was going to get a new package and a new superhub would come with it, Though I keep hearing bad things for gaming with it. In our house there are 3 of us who game all through lan connections cat 6 cables. Of course tablets and phones just use Wifi ect. While researching all this I see that some people say using the superhub 2 is better and additionaly just using it as a modem, connecting an additional router. Is this true for gaming. And if so what suitable routers should i look for, to add to my setup? Am I also better of with the version 2 instead of 3 We watch lots of media through internet, netflix ext to our dsesktops. Tablets and phones on wifi are just chat really and FB.
 
I have had it for years. I have noticed annoying issues with the internet which i have just lived with. I do not know if it is down to the hub or something else. For example i would get a good ping but it would spike every now and then every min or so. sometimes things would drop out completely for a moment and this would result for example in cars in Iracing disapearing and others saying im always blinking. But as I say I do not know if this is anything to do with the superhub. All I know is I got fibre, a decent on paper speed but niggles like this which have always been there. The problem is its virgins fiddle time as what happens when out of contract, putting up my bills and ringing them playing the usual game of leaving and the so called retentions dept offering new deals ect. But these new deals to keep you are not as good as the ones for new customers which involves a full cancellation , sending equipment back for new stuff hence the Superhub 3.
