I can order VOIP and IP-TV services from the broadband provider I use at
home. This is realised by using a separate subnet per service, so with
VOIP+IPTV+Internet I'm already using three distinct subnets. I don't
have to configure anything - that's all handled by my ISP. I just have
to connect the IP telephone and IPTV tuner to the correct port on the
CPE and I'm ready to go.
