Thank you ! The credit should go to BenMCR really as it was his insight on the WiFi certification that made me look further.
This has proven an interesting exercise with more information being confirmed by the Virginmedia people, who I suspect have also learned for that first time that the two units will not be "identical" and the Huawei appears to have a superior specification.
On that note I asked a more informed friend in the US about the additional functionality. She is familiar with Broadcomm, and advises that the additional functionality could come from Huawei using a newer chipset, or more likely Huawei are developing on the latest 5-5-5 codebase, while Netgear may be on an older version that does not support the additional functionality.
So it looks like the Huawei will support concurrent 2.4 and 5GHz modes ?
I cannot see any Huawei approvals for the 485 on
The Certified Eurodocsis Devices List though.
