"how cheap?" it depends -- whether you're talking about retail, or the bare bones prices being demanded by NSPs from box vendors and whether or not these NSPs have a broad and popular suite of homenet services to allow subsidizing the boxes
The overall point here is that these boxes probably have to hit very inexpensive price points...easily sub $50 to the NSPs R. -------- Original message -------- Subject: Re: [homenet] Creating a security association via physical link + button From: Ted Lemon <mel...@fugue.com> To: "Howard, Lee" <lee.how...@twcable.com> CC: "homenet@ietf.org" <homenet@ietf.org>,Lorenzo Colitti <lore...@google.com> On Nov 22, 2011, at 5:19 PM, Howard, Lee wrote: I don’t want to do mechanical engineering here.
