And I agree with most of the non-technical end users there. An ISP provided router does get updates and in case of problems I can call them and they will fix it. I currently experience that myself as my DSL modem (not ISP supplied) is currently experiencing problems, which the ISP provided router does not have. So I now have to research what the actual problem is, which is something most non technical users wouldn’t be even capable of doing. Also I’ve seen way more intrusion of my home and privacy by over the top providers or IoT devices than I have seen by my ISP. I know this might be different in different parts of the world, which is why we should not take either view for granted. > It's clearly not in > Amazon/Google/Facebook/Intel/Samsung/insert-another-IoT-conglomerate's > interest to be told by ISPs what their products may or may not do. > This is an ongoing tussle that that relates in some ways (but not all) > to the > net neutrality debate and the desire my ISPs for a cut of the > over-top-pie. > My answer is that the consumer should be in control, and that ISPs > need to > get out of the home router business entirely. I agree that customers should be in control, and they are now as in most countries you can choose between an ISP provided routers or buy one at your convenience. I do not see how less choice (only non ISP provided routers) will make this better especially as ISP provided and often managed routers are usually updated and taken care of by the ISP in case of problems. > Home router vendors (or the > service companies they create) should provide first-level support for > issues, > and actual real connectivity issues should be submitted > electronically. Well I wish I had a pony, but sorry this is not how it works. The primary driver for most people when they buy home routers is price and I doubt that these mostly Asia based companies could support my wider family with a german speaking hotline. My ISP can though… On Stephens original question I am between 3 and 4, as I mostly care from an intellectual standpoint, as in man it would be great if that would work, rather then believe we will actually get devices widely deployed, but I for sure would like to play with some in my free time.
