Even then it's not easy, I'm using a similar Marvell in a project (not
a CPE or AP) and they were not keen to support it (they want netgear
quantities) so it's handy what cznic are doing. Much appreciated

Here's a video I recorded of their UKNOF presentation

That's how I found them, I have another project (a FTTH install)
that I'd love to use that as the CPE but at this stage it's way
over our budget (I'm not saying it's too expensive as it's fine
given their volume).

I'm hoping that happens I we can use it as CPE
