If you have time look through a few TBM graphs that proliferate this thread and you will see that you will be much better of keeping your SH2.

from what i read there was/are a lot of latency problems with it in modem mode and they were awaiting a firmware update to fix itJust signed up for 300Mb/20Mb and I HAVE to use the SH3...
Not looking forward to that... but the 20Mb upload was too tempting
Is the SH3 any better in modem only mode?

You can get 20MB upload with the 200MB packages...
I know... but 300Mb...
I download Linux, a LOT.
(Actually, no I don't but always good to have MORE POWA).

I'm in the process of buying a house in a VM area, not been with them since 2011.
Anyway to get discount? Looking for broadband.

if you have facebook goto the local buy and sell pages there are normally VM reps on there canvassing. usually dish out some great deals for new customers

aw thnx, mind u im used to getting the blame for anything that goes wrongIf it fails, I'm blaming you
I currently have the original Superhub 1 in modem mode connected to my
Asus RT-AC66U 802.11ac router which doesn't give me any problems. However VM have just upgraded me from 100mb to 150m + Superhub 3 and V6 box. I got the new equipment today but not plugged it in and after reading comments about the SH3 I wonder if I should! Should I stick with my current setup or use the new SH3?

Lol your name
Anyway stick with your SH1 for now. If you can get 150Mbps on it just stick with it. SH3 causes increased latency. I mean the SH3 is fine for through put but increases latency so anything latency dependant will fall like gaming.
