88x3310 can dynamically switch between 10GBASE-R, 5GBASE-R, 2500BASE-X
and SGMII if rate adaption is not being used (and the rate adaption
method it supports in non-MACSEC PHYs is only via increasing the IPG on
the MAC... which currently no MAC driver supports.)

FTTP is here! 40Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last!
