Default ZyXEL Authentication Starter Kit

ZyXEL just launched a Authentication Starter Kit with 2 Tokens for one time passphrases, to increase security. It also includes the RADIUS software as well. Apparently this only is offered right now in the German speaking part of this planet. I haven't seen it elsewhere. Here is a link:

Now my question is: when is NETGEAR following this example. I am VERY keen to have that kind of authentication. I was already evaluating SafeWord and RSA for that.

Default Re: ZyXEL Authentication Starter Kit

There are a lot of similar technologies have came out in the past, however, none of them have really been able to keep itself useful and provide good efficient demand for the IT industry. The problem I see with this is that only if you are a network giant with large number of employees and lots of $$$$$$ to waste, I do not see how this would fit into a small to medium business products or class of users. It's a nice concept and idea, but practical enough for everyday use, I think not.
