Re: Naked Gas Anyone?

Now, what is the means of transportation: copper or fiber?

Your not saying you can use the natural gas itself as broadband signaling... that would be too weird. And even if everyone was ga-ga about it and it was approved for deployment and there are no -radio interferance like bpl- where would this theoretially be installed?

No, I was just pointing out that when I want to get DSL service I must also have a basic phone line. I was poking fun at this new "technology" you could say...

Re: Naked Gas Anyone?

From the previous article that I have read on this, it travels through a line that is buried next to the gas line. So it doesn't really travel through thin air, it does go through a physical line of some type.

Perhaps it works using something like microwave waveguide technology. But I'm not sure how well that would get through valves and other obstacles.

Yes, the signal passes through the gas line and goes to a box near your home then goes through I normal line.
