Re: Austin BPL...
thanks for posting - this is the first time I have seen anyone post about BPL service.
I don't know if your experience is typical, but it almost sounds as if the service is not read for primetime. This is what I post for any article about BPL:
A twentieth century technology that will never be more than a niche player, if that. I don't ever expect to see a major deployment of BPL; I'm not sure there will ever be a successful, lasting deployment of BPL. |

| There is some activity in the forums regarding BPL, a couple of catch-all examples (which include some additional links):
»[PLC] Anyone using Broadband-Over-Powerlines?
»Any BPL customers here to report?
Its still in its infancy, but I agree that it may remain simply a niche player.
Hard to say how it will finally achieve commercially viable deployment. But the municipal services angle is one option.
