Yep and so you have at your neigboors.
The PLN was no security about that. The power lines don't stop at frontdoor. And so doesn't the datastream. Except for the use of encription.
But that has a big toll on bandwith.... nah nah nah.

edit.
The same goes for Wlan.

Oh and encryption is enabled by default; PLN is just 802.11 standards moduled on a wire instead of in the air :)

Insert coin to continue... :P

Re: wifi and PLN

lol. I read about this technology before, but it was not that 'good'. As pmb said, in flats or high buildings, with lots of electricity, you have a lot of data loss. Also bad-wired buildings deliver poor speeds.

The conclusion was, you better can use real network cables, gives you speeds you can never really reach with electricity cables... ie, 1000Mbit ;)

Re: wifi and PLN

Well, I don't know in the netherlands but here everybody has filters on his power counter... and the quality of the power network is VERY good (partly because of that).
