well said mickel1138! LOLL

In Europe it is like that! They have Internet over poweline and like mickel1138 said, they use A LOT of fiber optic!

Imagine all the electric NOISE!

Big power line = BIG ANTENNA!

Phone line is not the same as power line, though i dont really see the drawbacks other than possibly low speeds (otherwise there would be other powerline bb out there) for the customers.
