cdrnet:bagheera:cdrnet: The last time I used Powerline technology, it only worked at 11Mb/s. They were talking about increasing the speed to something like 88Mb/s, but I did find it reliable. The error correcting side of Wireless makes the actual performance difficult to measure, so I do quite like such reliable solutions. What speed does it work at these days?
depends - can go upto 300mbs (or at least the one we got could), but if it a long run thought the power cable it drops off, and to the master bed room it was very low - can not remember how low it was but it like xdls - over x distance it drops off.
WOW - Sounds great. I had no idea. I'm considering running a new cable and the route I had planned to take is likely to take around 4 hours of crawling around in dirt and dust, through my roof cavity. If I was to use a Powerline device, I estimate that the actual distance will be around 60m. How would 60m measure up in terms of achieving 300mb/s ?
also depend on how the power is lay out - 60m could = 300m of power cable by the time it gone from 1 plug back to the power board and back out to the other plug - only way to know is to try one.
