This has been discussed almost ad-nauseum in other threads.  It's extremely
likely that there will be an 'unofficial' (community-driven) way to perform
the network setup, eliminating the need for the SBC if that's what you want.

I really wish this caveat could be removed from the specs "officially" just
so that we could stop having to point people in the right direction every
time someone points out the limitation because I think it's been mentioned
at least a dozen times.

I have to wonder if some marketroid somewhere thinks that they'll force the
less technically savvy user to get the Duet bundle, but keep the community
uproar down to a minimum by allowing the SBR to work standalone using
unsupported means.
