Hi <nobody in particular>
And the "funny thing is", http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantiq has links
to OpenWrt giving some false sense of a cool working relationship, that,
apparently, does not exist.
OK, let us say cool in the negative sense from Johns politically correct
reply.
I hope the following is "ok":

Hi Daniel,
i get asked this question regularly. the answer is somewhat complicated
as wonky licenses are involved.
here are the plain facts, interpret them yourself please.
* you are the 4th person to ask this month.
* the fw blob has a license that prevents us from redistributing it.
* if i tell people where to get the blob from then i give advise on how
to break the license (and i don't want to be held accountable)
* lantiq was very foss friendly between 2009 and 2012. currently there
is a cold breeze.
* we have reported this problem to them over years, repeatedly
* we have been told for years that they are working on a solution
* we are still waiting

I understood that the vendor is using openwrt as their SDK and claims to be
friendly with us. So how come there no usable fw in owrt and things are
rather chaotic?
i hate this question and wish people would stop asking me on a regular
basis. before i start a huge rant i will take a couple of hours to think
of a politically correct reply.
