I have a v1 and it is straight pass through. It is all DHCP based and there is no need to mac spoof unless you want to keep the IP, you may just need to power down and back up again.
As long as your kit is never off for more than "the dhcp lease halflife" then you typically keep the IP for a long period (I've had mine for about 3 years now and moved house once) so all in all pretty damn impressed... Unless someone on-list can correct the major downside is no native IPv6 on the roadmap at VM residential. If you are on old firmware, a factory reset of the hub has been known to force a tftp download of the new firmware.
