right! so why do both keep updating their own marketing and web pages each month? ;-) thanks for the info though - our future world isnt messed up for multigig > - Optional Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) support *optional* - in our current energy efficiency/green aligned world this should be mandatory > - Standard expected in September 2016 okay.. so buying now is like buying pre-N 802.11 kit - it should work with final standard but theres no cast-iron guarantee....new silicon might be required ? thanks for the info though! :) alan
