The Home-PNA cards look like ethernet cards to the kernel.
Does the specification tell something about the PROTOCOLS
to be run, that I have not checked.
For example, the Tulip driver (www.scyld.com) understands
PHY interface called Home-PNA.
Comparing to the Ethernet (10/100/1000/more Mbit/sec),
the Home-PNA runs at 1 Mbit/sec. (And thus can use
in-house CAT-3 telephony cabling.)
