The “twilight zone” on powerline networking

Posted on November 21, 2007. Filed under: HomePlug, Singapore |

I guess anyone reading this blog would have figured that Aztech is quite heavily involved in HomePlug aka Powerline networking .. or in layman terms …. using electrical cable to send internet data.

The question that’s on everyone’s minds is ..

Is this technology new???

Answer: No

Is it reliable?

Answer: Absolutely. 4 years ago, answer would have been no.

Is it worth getting a pair?

Answer: Hell YA! Its totally portable, use anywhere .. gives you the edge over pure wireless.

We seem to have gathered a good pool of supporters on the local No.1 I.T forum in Singapore – HardwareZone (http://forums.hardwarezone.com/). I see dudes like liangtam, alanchai .. responding to queries. And judging from the good response, we thank these dudes who have advocated the use of HomePlugs.

Thanks to galliano .. this pic found hidden in the HWZ forums ..

Anyway, the marketing chap (aka me) thinks its prob time for us to do a short vid on how to take advantage of HomePlugs. Cos in the “twilight zone” of networking, there are still folks who think Homeplugs are for the main street powerlines.

Watch out for the vid. Akan datang.
