Anyone got a virgin superhub (or you may know it as a superdud - I just touched the screen for correction thinking it was my iPad LoL), what kind of speeds are you getting with your ps3? I've got 50mb bb and I'm getting 15mb max on my second superdud, when I was on 10mb I was getting around that.

I've just got mine installed, on the 30mb service. I've wired my PS3 to the Superhub and am getting 15mb download speed. Cant really complain as it's more than I'll ever use. Watched a DVD from Lovefilm (via PS3) yesterday and there were no connection issues.

Are you having problems with yours? I'd be interested in knowing what issues I might face...

I've found the wireless signal strength is pretty piss poor!

It doesn't really have a wireless signal, every step out the door is one bar down on the device. My last hub had a full signal upstairs.

Got my ps3 wired to the dud and it's getting between 13-15mb (using test connection), surely for 50mb it should be at least 30mb.

Before I could even use it I had to disable all the settings in the services menu of the hub, particularly anti flood and mess about with the channels using istumbler.

The virgin forums are full of people complaining about the ps3 speeds and signal strength with no solution in sight.

wow, think I might be a lucky one! The engineer who installed was a really nice guy, a gamer too, so he configured my dud. Changed some stuff and it worked straight away.

Good luck with it all! Have a good a link to the forums you've been looking? Would appreciate reading up on it too.

Cheers!
