VI. CONCLUSIONS We have argued that the unique characteristics of the home environment require a refactoring of network functionality. Our proposed design extrapolates the de facto standard common home network architecture, which features a commodity multifunction box as the central component, to provide crucial functions missing from the Internet architecture. We believe that this shift away from a pure end-to-end approach, toward one in which the network core gains much greater functionality, can address many of the empirically observed problems with networking in the home.
