Re: Not going there said by Tomek: Do new cordless phones and wi-fi(a) use 5Ghz spectrum? I wonder what kind of interference exists with BPL. Maybe Quebec trials can resolved them. I would like to see some competition and prices dropping, speeds increasing.
This may be an incomplete response, but the info I have is:
There are, in the US, cordless phones that use 5 GHz; don't know about our friends to the north.
It has been pointed out by other posters in other threads that 802.11(a) is mainly an inside, shorter range(not sure, but FHSS is the spreading scheme-I think-versus DSSS) utilization of Wi-Fi, so interference is not likely to be difficult to mitigate.
I would also like to see prices down and speeds/throughput up.
I would hazard a guess that there will be MANY eyes on this one. -- I once accidentally spilled spot remover on my dog and he disappeared.

Sure, but watch out for part 15! There are many technologies and networking topologies that utilize powerlines in the residence, but the power levels needed and ancillary equipment required(repeaters) make it unfeasible to implement by the private sector. There are intercoms you can get from radio shack that use FM, but those are fairly narrowband. -- I once accidentally spilled spot remover on my dog and he disappeared.
