Hi all, having read the specs on both of these could someone explain the major differences please. In the specs for the 7800 it keeps mentioning (7800n).

The 7800 has no wireless feature , the 7800N has "N" rated wireless. Simples as they say.

Looking at the specs on the billion site I felt I had to ask the same question.

Where did you find this info - reading the description for the 7800, it was described as a Networking Router and seemed pretty similar to the 7800N.

Thanks Tim having read this in the 7800 specs is what confused me
Wireless LAN (BiPAC 7800N)
• Compliant with IEEE 802.11n draft 2.0, 802.11g and 802.11b standards
• 2.4 GHz – 2.484 GHz frequency range
• Up to 300Mbps wireless operation rate
• 64- / 128-bit WEP supported for encryption
• WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) for easy setup*5
• Wireless Security with WPA-PSK / WPA2-PSK support
• WDS repeater function support
It's a repeat of the 7800n specs

Exactly. That's why I contacted Billion sales as I too was confused.
