    Virgin Superhub Speed settings

    Hi the problem is I got 60mb speed but I only get around 47mb/50mb at very best. If I change the connection speed from 154mb to 300mb it hits the 60mb speed but seems to keep dropping out ... Any ideas I would be thankful thanks

    is the superhub new first?

    if no then lets move on

    sorry I didn't understand you at first when you said change the connection speed
    from 154mb to 300mb it hits the 60mb speed
    whats the wireless speed on your other device on your pc/laptop?
    also do you have a firewall on it if so disable for the duration of this excerise please

    disable the WiFi temporary by the guide below and try a cable from the superhub to the computer/laptop and test the speed
    if the speed is fine just do the reverse of what you did to enable the WiFi

    if the speed is still bad then go this link below and select your device and it will show how to reset your device.

    but also other things affect net speed
    how you are connected to the net (wire,wifi) if your wifi it will affect your speed
    (all WiFi specs has to be same at least.
    channels speed on receivers others devices in the area
    how many in your network and if their on at the same time etc)

        I've found all sorts of issues with the Superfail, as it's affectionately known. Stuff like that you get massive jitter (change in ping times) if you push a lot of VPN traffic through the router (even via cable). The general suggestion is to get an external router, and switch the Superhub onto modem mode and just plug that into your new router.

        The firmware updates for the Superhub have improved things in places, also try turning the thing off and leaving it off for ten minutes and turning it back on. I know that sounds like the usual IT "Have you tried turning it off and on again?" but seriously, it can make a big long-term difference.
