200 Mbps home network using your power lines

will this work over a sub-box, ie in an out-building on the same property?

If the sub-box feeds of the main db and the wiring is correct I dont see why not.

If they are on different phases, then it won't work

bit of a gamble to buy, then - it'd only be useful to me if i could use it in two buildings on the same property.

Hmmm, why oh why, Netgear brought something similar in the form of the HDXB101 about 4 years so I don't see the big surprise. Even had the WGX102 which was wireless and travelled at 54mbps, cost R1800, 3yrs ago.

You would want to test it in this situation first - this type of device will not work across transformers or different phases.

Quite useless then, except if you have a mansion of some sort.

don't see how this service could function in SA thanks to eskum's continues power cuts

eskum will no doubt want a piece of the action seen that were using there lines

Maybe a bigger rate hike, and a monthly line rental fee?

I read sumwhere that eishkom's PBX runs over the national electric grid.

Their lines? How do you figure that? The wires in my house belong to me.
