Extended home space refers not only to home appliances but also to logical space, including a wide range of out-home personal devices such as mobile phones, PDAs, laptops, car navigators, and office PCs. Seamless networking and collaboration among these devices is essential to provide users with a ubiquitous home environment in which they can use home services whenever and wherever they want to. In reality, however, there are certain barriers to this, such as the dynamic IP address, NAT, and heterogeneous service protocols. In this paper, we propose a Home Gateway that provides unrestricted collaboration between personal devices in the extended home space by overcoming these barriers with P2P networking technology.
