I'm on VM 152mb broadband service and am currently using their superhub 1 for both wired and wireless connections.

I have on my network PC'c, Laptops, tablets, phones and consoles. I frequently suffer dropouts and poor latency during online games. WiFi range is very poor and I'm having to reboot the superhub every couple of days.

Would something like a Asus N56U or N66U with my superhub set to modem mode solve my problems? Also is the Superhub 1 ok as just a modem or does it still cause problems?

Can't really afford more than the cost of a N66U and I've already tried to blag a Superhub 2 from VM with no luck and I really begrudge giving VM £50 for rented equipment to replace something faulty :(
 
I have tried on two occasions to get the SH2 but has I'm still in my contract I don't have any "disconnections" leverage :(

How good is the SH2? Which would be better - paying £50 to VM for the SH2 or £110 for the N66U and will this give me a better overhaul network than a SH2?

Btw I did have a better Wireless network when I had the previous VM modem and a older Asus router.
