Easy Ethernet in any Room!

To my knowledge, Ethernet over power line doesn't reach 100 Mbps. Think it's closer to about 60 maybe... So seems like USB 2.0 is overkill (unless they are doing something different than how Ether over power is done).

I used to have an old frequency adjustable baby monitor like that. Picked up all kinds of random stuff from the neighborhood, some stuff that was quite private that I have no idea why it would be broadcast on anything at all. There was a couple down the street that had quite the active sex life and we could hear it clearly.

Bonus. Only live is better. Course then you may have all kinds of other options.

I just saw an add for 85Mb ethernet over power. Probably actual speeds depend on several factors again though.
BTW that article says they reached 190Mbps with USb 2.0 over standard power lines
MustardTent:
Guess the point is that it's still faster than USB 1.x.
2600:
I believe, the latest spec for the power PHYs are 200Mbs. 85Mbs is the actual throughput.
Hadn't seen the latest Icron thing. I imagine they are using the same PHYs as the Ethernet ones. Icron the only company that make really good USB extenders. Every other one I've seen are crap.
