Networking - always an SF topic?

This fits along the lines of SF and SU having entirely different scopes, and decidedly NOT covering different complexity levels.

If SU is about individual systems, and the troubleshooting of that desktop/laptop and its hardware/software - provided the question is not about configuring networking on that individual system should all networking questions belong on SF?

This question doesn't seem like it'd get much input on SU, and if you remove the word "home", I can't see that it doesn't fit right in. However, I'm asking the question to get other perspectives on the idea. I may head over to SU meta to see how they feel about pure networking questions.

Would it clarify the FAQs of both sites to direct networking questions to SF?

edit:

I wasn't very precise - I'm mainly talking about general/generic/nonspecific networking, specifically where it doesn't involve a PC, consoles, gadgets, consumer-grade linksys wireless routers (though I've had to support those in the office far too often), etc.
