Ethernet Over Power Lines

Techie geek post warning -- The new AT&T box is on the first floor and my desktop is on the second floor. The desktop is also where I store all of our multimedia that I stream to the other TV's over the PlayStations. Being lazy, I didn't want to run network cable from my office down to the dining room, and my PS3 Media server won't recognize wireless cards -- It has to go through a wired network card, so I went out and decided to try Netgear's Ethernet over power lines adapters. I plugged them into my standard A/C outlets, and now I've got broadband over my house's power lines. I wish I had an electric toothbrush to see if I would get internet access in my fillings when brushing
