Hi Luke,
I've spread the news about this router and got a positive feedback, but also a huge complaint, that on http://rhombus-tech.net/community_ideas/router/news/ it says 5x 1Gbit PHY, but QCA9531 has only 5x 100Mbit PHY.
In case the router will have just 100Mbit interfaces, then it doesn't make any sense to make such a router (nobody would be interested in it as it wouldn't add any value to the current routers as these are quite often very capable, with firmware being open-source and targetting the same price segment as the EOMA68 router).
Keep going,
