As far as I could see, everyone in the first link was running Windows. As I said, I'm perfectly happy with the Windows performance, even with one HomePlug joined to a Linksys router attached to a CentOS server. I tried compiling the program in the second link. I wasn't too hopeful, since it dates from 2004, but it did actually compile under Fedora-17, though with several warnings, all I think concerned with string functions, eg strncopy. However, when I ran "sudo ./plconfig eth0" it just hung. I'll look again at this, but as I said I'm not too hopeful. I'm quite surprised, as I would have thought quite a few Linux people were using Powerline HomePlugs. >> I have a TP-Link PA-211 kit with two adaptors to link my laptop >> to a CentOS-6.3 server, or rather the Linksys router attached to the >> server. >> >> According to TP-Link this setup works, or should work, with Linux. >> >> It works fine for me if I run Windows XP on the laptop, >> but under Fedora-17 there is no link (eg as reported by ethtool). >> The mini-CD user manual that comes with the kit >> says it runs under Linux, >> but all the software included is for Windows. >> >> Is anyone using Powerline HomePlugs under Linux? >> If so, what is the secret? -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
