Re: SH3 Question

No one said it doesnt have issues, they said they personally were not experiencing any.

I have an SH3 and dont have any issues that I notice, but then I dont care at all about online gaming.

Re: SH3 Question

I didn't noticed anything until my downstreams changed, then I started getting some odd issues. I first thought it was down to a particular server or peering route... I should be so lucky.

Regardless of what people do or don't notice personally, the fact remains there is an issue with the puma 6 based modems and in recent light, it seems latency is the least of the worries.

OP has a SH1, the point I'm making is that even with the latency issue, the SH3 is still a better device.

Nobody's saying it doesn't have an issue, just that its impact is overblown. It doesn't cause lag, or warping or rubber-banding in online games. Some games might be more affected than others, depending on how their netcode works, but having play various twitch shooters I haven't noticed any spikes at all - on a SH3 with 20 Downstream channels.

Re: SH3 Question

Quick question as I'm tethering to my mobile.

My SH is no more, it has ceased to be, it's an ex-modem.

I have a SH3 winging its way to me, my question is what is it IP, is it 192.168.0.1 like the SH1?

I need to put it in to modem mode as my Asus RT-N66U has static IPs set and my xbox is one of them as it has ports open set to its IP.

is the SH3 easy to put in to modem only mode?

Is there a PDF manual?

Re: SH3 Question

  1. 192.168.100.1
  2. Yes. Just need the admin password from the label, click the modem mode menu then choose modem mode and save. It wil reboot and then be ready to do its job.
  3. Probably a manual or a guide on the VM help section, but in modem mode it's not exactly a complicated bit of kit. Menu looks different but its pretty similar to how the other hubs work. No login required to see the modem info, just to see the settings and firmware version.

Re: SH3 Question

It takes alot longer to connect compared to the SH1,2 so don't worry, also in router mode all the lights apart from the white strip at the bottom will be off, in modem mode i am not sure how it looks.

By default the shub will be in router mode with an ip of 192.168.0.1 and it is only when you put it in modem mode that it switches to 192.168.100.1. Homer will therefore have to access it on 192.168.0.1 to make the change and the only time you will have to go to 100.1 after that is if you want to check the power levels etc via router status.

Re: SH3 Question

Pretty sure 192.168.100.1 always works, regardless of modem/router mode.

Re: SH3 Question

It didnt on my shub 2. I had only used linksys routers for 14 years or so before i got my shub2 and i was scratching my head when i went to 192.168.100.1 and it said page not found. Having read many many posts about shub1 i remembered in router mode it is 0.1 0.1 stopped working once i switched to modem mode and .100.1 responded.

I does on my SH3, thats the address I used initially, before I switched it to modem mode (and once since, when I temp switched back for some testing).

Yes i had a feeling it was different but i have no need for modem mode as the Hub3 is sufficient.

Very peculiar, I am sure it worked on my old SH2 but I switched that to modem mode pretty quickly and never went back.
