Home Networking Advanced with Homeplug Progress

In what’s fast become a busy season on the home networking support front, the IEEE today gave approval to the HomePlug scheme for connecting devices to fuel residential consumer services adoption.

The news comes just days after the Digital Living Network Alliance added Multimedia over Coax (MOCA) to its 2009 list of home network specs.
