Could it be the Virgin Super Hub 4 router?

The Virgin Super Hub 3 is a popular site in British homes, providing internet and television services to millions of people. However, the device is already more than three years old. which means a successor should be ready for last, especially with consumers looking to connect more devices than ever before. Now, a mysterious new gadget listed by the manufacturer behind previous generations of the Super Hub has been spotted online, could it be acting from the Super Hub 4? Built by Arris, which is now owned by Commscope, the Virgin Super Hub 3 (or the TG2492LG-VM to give it its official name) is built around an Intel Puma chipset with 802.11ac and Gigabit Ethernet ports to get the best out of its abilities. . However, the increasing average number of devices connected to a wireless router (due to the growing popularity of devices like Google Home or Amazon Alexa), coupled with the demand for higher-bandwidth applications (like 4K video), revealed SH3's weaknesses. Arris will likely be the vendor to provide the successor to Super Hub 3 now that it is part of Commscope. And the Super Hub 4, as it will likely be called, could be the just-launched TG9442 (or variant) listed on the company's website.

Gigabit Broadband Ready

Based on the BCM3390, a Broadcom system-on-chip (rather than Intel), the new device is a DOCSIS 3.1 system enabling multi-gigabit-per-second connectivity, ideal for testing Nationwide Virgin Media Gigabit-level services. TG9442 is also equipped with 4ax dual-band wireless 4x802.11 wireless radios (WIFI-6) and can automatically configure Wi-Fi extensions for optimal on-site coverage. It has three Ethernet ports, one less than the SH3. Two of them are Gigabit and the third is a 2.5Gbps. It should be noted that one of the unique selling points of this device is the presence of "multiple embedded processor cores" designed "to enable the deployment of new applications on the gateway," according to Arris. One of these applications could be a virtual private network (VPN) and additional processor cores would be useful to speed up performance as VPN accelerators.
