[LUG] Interesting alternative to Power over Mains & Wireless

 

Hi folks,

Just seen this which was linked to on The Inquirer... 
http://www.smallnetbuilder.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=30743&Itemid=51

It seems that Netgear are going to be bringing out a kit which will 
create a network over standard TV coax.  There are a few limitations 
such as it won't work through a TV amplifier and it's limited to 16 
nodes but it might be useful for those of us who have a coax TV 
connection to each room in the house running off one TV ariel.

I just wish it came out before putting in CAT5 in the house. :-(

Still if it's released and if it doesn't cost the earth it might 
actually be handy for some folk.

Rob
