Re: This isn't a viable option......

The electric company already reads my meter without a meter reader. My meter has a radio in it that sends the meter reading to a central box hanging from a light pole that relays the reading elsewhere.

With the amount of bandwidth consumed by the average person getting higher and higher, BPL will not be able to keep pace with cable or fiber. Even DSL is a better option if you can get it.
It is starting to look more and more like BPL will be a non-starter in the marketplace. It was never as cheap or as fast to deploy as claimed, and with Wimax getting the big push now from technology companies like Intel, its opportunity to become a viable broadband competitor appears to have passed.
