I have got a few of these electrical ethernet plugs and I have found that its very slow (the ones I got are anyway). 100mbps electrical sockets and tranferring files on the network is painfully slow.


But 100mbps is still faster than the average 802.11g speeds which is 54mbps. Yes there are these super speed N types going round but not everyone has them. I still use 10/100 ethernet (in some places) and find it does the job quite adequately for our needs.

 

I also got a cheap pair of homeplugs... very convenient but the EM radiation risk put me off using them so they now just sit about on the floor unused lol. If I wasn't so paranoid about causing someone else health problems I'd have given them away by now.

I need a new signature... i'm bored of the old one!
