We are looking into AMCC, AMD and PowerPC, which is best CPU for residentail Gateway. Uplink is VDSL, downlink side LAN ports + wireless + some analog interface. If there is any very good CPU besides AMCC, AMD and Power Processors?. Thanks.

These are all rather compute-heavy multiple-issue CPUs. I don't think you need anything that powerful. Memory & I/O bandwidth is more important. AFAIK, most SoHo routers use ARM CPUs. -- Robert
