There are four chip variants, bcm63168, bcm63268, bcm63169 and
bcm63269, and they were all introduced at the same time. the *16x have
less features than *26x (IIRC only two rgmii ports instead of four, no
hw crypto, maybe no dect?), and the *9 ones have no xDSL support.

difference between bcm63168 and bcm63268 (and the x9's).

As a reference, Broadcom uses bcm63268 as the "generic" name for the
chip family in their code, but on their website only advertise the
bcm63168. Both chips do exist though, and at least the bcm63169, I
have devices with these three here.
