Homeplug technology has improved markedly of late and previously justified concerns about spurious emissions are largely laid to rest. Reliability (inc. any need for restarting) and transmission speeds are greatly improved too.
Mine were one of the first lot to come out and only did about 40Mb/s max and cost about £100. :-doh

Yes, I sympathise.

Being a Yorkshireman, I'm a persistent late adopter so get higher spec. stuff cheaper. Eventually!

No satellite stuff for the moment (aside from a 43cm minidish that was on the house already), Samsung SyncMaster T27B550 Smart TV & Monitor, and a few computers...

I have a pair of 80Mbps homeplugs and they're not good at transmitting video from my media server to my TV, but they are old homeplugs, so past their best now... :-doh

Might have a use for them with an IP camera I've bought (coming in from china so should be here by next year), as where I want to site it has no direct access to my wired network, as to whether they'll stream properly, goodness knows...
