Yeah, all gigabit. The wired part works great, when the WiFi on the Superhub is playing up my 2nd AP still works with no issues.

Looks good but far more than what I'm willing to pay!

Also want something that will run DD-WRT or OpenWRT. I think I've found something that will do the job hopefully.

My new router should arrive today and I'm working out where to put it.

I'll need to put the Virgin router in modem mode and connect the new router to that.

I think this won't work but people with some actual networking knowledge should give a definitive answer.

I'm pretty sure in modem mode the IPs between the modem and new router are in a different range to the LAN IPs. Can I have all these connected on the same LAN with dumb switches? (to be able to put the new router in a better position for WiFi - centre of the house rather than front)

So...

I assume it needs to be this with the VMHub directly connected to the router.
 

VMHub----Router----LANswitch----Devices

But can it be this? Or will there be IP issues?
 

VMHub-----LANswitch-----Devices
Router----|

 

If the Virgin Help page is correct you should be able to do the latter as long as you:

1. Remove the VMHub's modem-mode IP (192.168.1.100) from the DHCP pool of your router. If you can't remove it, reserve it to the VMHub's MAC address.
    
2. Change the gateway address in the Router's DHCP settings to 192.168.1.100.

First one will be required to stop the VMHub's IP address being allocated to the DHCP client and the second will inform the DHCP clients to use 192.168.1.100 as their Internet gateway.

Of course, this is all dependent on whether your new router allows you to specify the gateway for DHCP. Quite a few don't, instead assuming that it should be the router's IP address.

Thanks Matt.

Well Yodel didn't leave the router at a neighbour so I won't be doing that tonight.
