Title: Multi Room LAN without having to drill holes
Post by: [TiG]the_syco on November 20, 2006, 11:27:40 PM

I remember someone here having to use wireless, as his PC wasn't near the phone, and he didn't want wires all over the place. Well, I've found a solution for you!

Based on HomePlug (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HomePlug), it allows you to make a network using existing power lines, in your house. No drilling holes, no wires all over the place. Saw one of the kits in Maplin's in Dublin going for ?115. Not noo bad.

Something I'm sure someone here would find interesting :ph33r:
