This is actually one of the most exciting features of the Duet - the
receiver acts as a simple AP for the controller.

So if the user has a wired network they don't need to change their
router to a wireless one to use the Duet - nor do they need a wireless
router to use the controller, which can be used with existing
SBs/TPs/SliMP3s.  This means the "extra" $100 for the Duet over the SB3
is mitigated by not requiring a wireless router for wired users.

And if the firmware could be extended for the SBR to act as a full AP
then...?
