My fingers are crossed that this new DGL will be the worthy successor to my 4500.

"the DGL-5500 uses the Qualcomm Atheros VIVE draft 11ac chipset"
"The VIVE chipset uses automatic QoS technology based on Bigfoot Networks' technology, not Ubicom's."

So who is Bigfoot Network? Check them out:http://www.killergaming.com/technology/

Ya, been told the UI is different. Very excited about this router.  :o
Will be interesting to see how this router will handle gaming and multiple game consoles all on line at the same time.

Well what I like is the more intuitive UI. Its alot easier to click and drag icons on a network map then it is to figure out IP's and ports. Lets just hope they allow us to access advanced options too though.

Precisely.  And throw a couple of media streaming devices on top of that for good measure.
