Well perhaps the problem is that it mixes home networking (LAN) and internet service access (WAN) in the same template at all. Maybe split into two? With links to each other? The LANs are not Internet "access" at all, but just ways of sending IP packets around a house. Unless there are providers that

The table is organised according to the type of cable/wireless frequency in the WAN. This tallies well with the protocols (right choice of word?) in the line of the table corresponding to WAN. But the LAN options are independent of the transmission medium in the WAN. You can have Wi-Fi-, Ethernet,

I have renamed the "ethernet cable" header to "twisted pair", as there is no such thing as an "ethernet cable". Additionally, I have added ethernet to several other categories, as ethernet is a prominent residential Internet access technology over both fiber and copper, and on LAN and WAN sides.
218:
It's not clear to me whether the intention is to have a list of different physical media that can be used to connected to the Internet ("cable", "optical fiber", etc gives that impression) or a list of standards, even if many of them use the same medium ("W-Fi", "bluetooth", etc are all wireless
614:
G.hn, Bluetooth, Dect - whatever you want to have on the LAN side, it is not related to the choice of technology in the WAN (I think I said that already!) So that means you should have all LAN technologies in every cell of the table. Am I making sense? --

which is so huge it would be out of proportion to most of the articles. Perhaps with a bit of trimming, see other comments. Need to think about this and come up with a proposal. It is also missing a link to the main

Agreed, although not sure exactly how to do it. It seems it was a navbox until unregistered user at IP 24.23.206.56 changed it to a table in 2009 adding the "LAN" options. I did one for

I suggest using the table below as a way to differentiate between "media" and "standards". Unless somebody objects, I plan to update the Template with this:

Perhaps yes, along the lines or G.hn it seems to be a home networking LAN option. As above, this probably is not relevant to Internet "access", sigh.
770: 80: 508:. Probably it should be renamed as something like "Networking". or broken out into two templates, one for network and one for internet access. -- 775: 180: 727: 471: 567:
You sound like an idiot. Of course xMax can be used for exactly what it states. Spreading your Filth seems to be your full time job.
