Somewhere in 2006 (8db60bcf3021921e2d10d158641792d640e52fe8) the drivers were removed as Sangoma wanted to maintain them themselves. Later some of the functionality got removed (ce0ecd594d78710422599918a608). In the kernel it appears that cycx_x25.c and isdn_x25iface.c make use of the wanrouter. Fast forward to today, Sangoma provides a wanrouter.ko as well (they didn't bother to change the symbol names or module name). I wonder if there are any plans to improve the situation, e.g. rename the kernel module, change symbols, or if there would be objections to trying to add functionality to the kernel wanrouter.ko again? cheers holger
