    it will never work over AC main wires, there is too much noise on mains lines to carry data signals, even the new upcoming ESB smart meter was going to be through the mains wires but they then decided to use the telephone.

    Like the above, its time to move along.

    Well its your decision, i personally would use the phone since its more reliable, but if your in a good area you may be able to pick up a wireless service.

    Until now, if consumers wanted broadband access, they were faced with two choices --- cable or DSL modems.

    As the news this week shows, all that is about to change. Motorola announced a wireless broadband-over-powerline solution designed to allow the utility industry to provide high-speed access to customer homes. The solution should be a significant competitor to existing ones: Motorola cites a study that claims as many as 13 million U.S. households remain unable to receive broadband services from traditional cable modem or DSL providers, and says that its solution can bring the power of broadband to cities and municipalities underserved by current broadband providers.
