They are slow, unreliable and create lots of interference to radio  
signals. Motorola had one called HomePlug, which was supposed to be  
used with their noninterfering BPL (broadband over powerline) system.  
The canceled the BPL because the comepting systems were so bad all  
were outlawed everywhere except the US, they may have canceled  
HomePlug too.

My next door neighbor has a different brand it makes radio reception  
here almost impossible, It's produces so much electrical noise, they  
can't even use WiFi. That's fine for me, it does not stop me from  
using WiFi, and helps keep others out of my networks.
