Better than cutting holes in your walls I have used the PLEBR10 for an extended period of time now (more than two years). In fact, my latest purchase was to replace a unit. The newest generation of this product is an all-in-one unit, which looks like a "power brick" rather than having an external power cord connected to a different unit. My wife told me she would not allow me to cut holes in the walls of our home for Ethernet cabling, so I decided to let the existing electrical wiring, handle networking chores as well.

It works... sometimes... As a networking "internals" guy, I was shocked to find that this product is fundamentally broken at the network layer.What people are complaining about here is that the device suddenly stops working and must be unplugged and plugged back in again. This is because the device is trying to be too smart, and is losing track of which power-line modules connect to which computers. Unfortunately, in doing so, it prevents the network-level broadcast facilities from working. The broad...
