850353 2010-01-21 03:24:00 personally I found that the el cheapo Power over Ethernet product worked better/faster than the more expensive model which was meant to have better range/speed

or just go WiFi

850354 2010-01-21 03:27:00 Yeah, it does get a bi expensive, and wireless doesn't go out that far, from where it is situated, and the same company also has a wireless version:

but i still have to buy the basic pack first any way... so i might get the wireless at a l8a date.

The reviews I always read for Power line networking (not the same as Power over Ethernet!) they didn't work well, had limited range and were prone to interference by appliances on the grid.

Though both of these were tested in offices which would have had a much larger area..

Wireless might be cheaper and better. But I can't say.
