OK Thanks

Correct indeed.

I imagine in most cases, if the port is Gen1 only then board integrator 
uses a Gen1 card as well, so I could try being fancy and probe the card 
to see if it supports Gen2. In OpenWrt the PCI driver is always built-in 
so I didn't really consider this something to worry about.

What's your preference?

Thanks,
