Perhaps the discussion of the D7800 should be split to a separate thread.

I think all current Lantiq devices are based on the VR9 family, the VRX268

or VRX288 chips, which have been around for a few years now.

The D7800 uses the next generation Lantiq chip, VR10 family, it's the first

device I've seen that does: Qualcomm Atheros from: d7800_gpl_source_list.txt
