'''HomeRF''' was a [[wireless networking]] specification for home devices. It was developed in 1998 by the Home Radio Frequency Working Group, a consortium of mobile wireless companies that included [[Proxim Wireless]], [[Intel]], [[Siemens AG]], [[Motorola]], [[Philips]] and more than 100 other companies.<ref name="caswell">{{cite web |title= HomeRF Archives |author= Wayne Caswell |date= November 17, 2010 |url= http://www.cazitech.com/HomeRF_Archives.htm |accessdate= July 16, 2011 }}</ref>

The group was disbanded in January 2003, after other wireless networks became accessible to home users and [[Microsoft]] began including support for them in its [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]] [[operating system]]s. As a result, HomeRF fell into obsolescence.
