[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1759492, member: 131855"] Thanks for that link Randy. The pros/cons mentioned in the article are similar to what I found when I looked at this type of connection. It sounds like the performance has really improved since then and the price for a basic kit has certainly come down since I looked at them. Ultimately we did not buy them at the time because of three factors: 1. I wasn't expecting good performance over the wiring in the first place we were going to use them. Besides in that place I could run an ethernet cable from the router in one room to my Time Capsule in another and have all but about 10' of the wire hidden by furniture. 2. When we moved to the second place the cost of these things had not come down yet. It was easier/cheaper to just buy a wireless bridge compared to the number of kits I would have needed. [/QUOTE]
