That is a better definition indeed.

CPE is Customer Premises Equipment, thus that indeed would cover everything.

The problem with "Residential" though is that not every such device is
in a residence, "Customer Gateway" would be better IMHO... then again
those would be quite new terms.

There should be an IETF RFC for those things somewhere.... just like
SHOULD/MUST ;)
