Re: Broadband over powerlines? Stupid idea.

it would be worthwhile if they were able to bring the prices down to compete.

It is far from criminal not to have it though. I think much more research needs to be done.

First off, prices for DSL may have come down BUT cable just raises the speeds (which DSL can't do due to distance.) BPL is far worse in that respect and can't compete on distance.

As for it being criminal not to have it, the spectrum pollution put out by BPL is criminal enough. My guess is that the power companies will put out the cheapest solution and try to say there is no interference. Hope California can pay for the lawsuits.
