I agree. I tried it as well and it was awful. I was only going through one floor and about 15 feet maybe. The issue was the reliability of the connection, not the max throughput that could be achieved. I eventually replaced the bridges with Motorola NIM-100 MoCA bridges and see a solid 100Mbps all day.

I could hit 280Mbps (802.11n Draft 2.0) but every 2-3 minutes the signal would get muddled and the rate would drop, causing a video pause. Actually, when the rate had to change at all, either decrease due to a interference and then when it cleared up and increased the rate again, I'd would experience problems. The 5GHz spectrum would help, so I hope they are deploying it there.

Personally, I'd rather use Ethernet over powerline (Netgear HDX-101 or newer).
I typically have ~100mbps to almost any outlet in my house (100mbps port, so ~70mbps throughput).
The only issue occurs when there's something with a high load (microwave oven, vacuum, hairdryer).

Never 1080i anyway. It's all compressed. But AT&T would do something like this.

720P would be the highest quality achieved nothing more.

The MoCA devices are much simpler and offer higher throughput. There is ZERO configuration required, you just plug them in and go. They are also not sensitive to load on the coax. As the other poster said, I see a solid 100Mbps all day long.

Resolution has nothing to do with compression. You can have 1080i at 1Mbps if you want to. You won't be able to make out what is in the video, but it's still technically video.

I have no issues with MoCA, however these devices are plug/play, no config required either. Its basically an ethernet bridge over 120V, usable at any outlet.
My longest run is probably ~300' of wire (far end of house to circuit breaker and back over a different circuit, and I have ~70Mbps (~55Mbps thoughput) - and my electrical is aluminum :P

I have zero problems transmitting 1080P24 video over my 5Ghz wireless N segment of my network. I can transfer multiple streams with zero problems. I easily have consistent 100mbs+ speeds from it.
As long as it's setup properly there should not be any dropouts.

Though technically right.... just as you pointed out though compression has EVERYTHING to do with resolution quality.

No matter how good it is, you are going to loss details and the more compression the more details lost.

I've tried a few powerline adapters without success. The best throughput I was able to achieve was ~17 Mbps. This was in a house built in 2005.

my point of view is that you cant beat a wired connection for vidieo that's just it, my point of view.

I said resolution, not quality.

1080p Blu-Ray discs usually run around 30Mbps, which is well within the real-world performance of 802.11n (60+ Mbps).

You can get excellent quality 1080p video with H.264 at 15Mbps, so you could easily send three video streams simultaneously over 802.11n.

The major stumbling block is going to be interference, but there's a good chance that AT&T will be using the 5GHz band instead of the 2.4GHz band (802.11n can use either).
