Never actually used one, just know of their existence. I can well imagine problems if there isn't free channels to spare to run one, I assume that they work across more than one channel at once, as a radio relay station. > A much better solution is to use a pair of power-line adaptors.

Having used other things that used the mains wiring, I would have thought there would be performance issues from signal losses, interference from noisy mains (switchmode power supplies, lighting dimmers), and issues with RFI filters on some mains inputs or filtered power boards. A third option may be another access point. Cable ethernet to it from your central point, and place this access point in a different/better position than the problem one. -- tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.19.4-100.fc20.i686 #1 SMP Mon Apr 13 22:20:50 UTC 2015 i686 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
