Hey all - kind-of off topic, but has anyone here used Ethernet over 
Power converters?

These are power plugs which convert your ethernet and somehow modulate 
it over the fixed power cabling in your house.  They're rated at up to 
85 Mbit and 15 units on a circuit.

However the specs say "All Homeplugs must be on the same power 
circuit" which I take to mean "all on the same length of cable from 
one fuse on the distribution board"

Does the signal stop at fuses/cutouts/boards?

Any other experiences?

They're around the $200 for a pair.


If it was my place I'd just wire it with cat5e, but is not mine.
