DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM:
The current version of the eRouter specification does not have a view of the eRouter with a WiFi radio present in
the architecture. This needs to be corrected for both the home network (private SSID) and to accommodate the
requirements for community WiFi, which leverages the eRouter for public SSID and GRE tunneling. This EC
provides for the concept of a WiFi radio in all of the current iterations of eRouter architectures: IPv4 only, IPv6
only and Dual Stack.
