short version: IT WORKS! Longer Version: I needed to extend wireless access to an outbuilding on my property. After a little research I've come to the conclusion that I have two options, both of which are quite expensive: I can run a separate maintenance line into the building and pay a monthly maintenance fee. or I could run a wireless bridge between buildings. At around $500 a wireless bridge would cost more, but after a year or so it would be a better deal with no ongoing fees. But then I was presented with a third option that I never considered. , power line bridge. My buildings are a few hundred feet apart and on separate fuse panels, but served by a single power line that runs to the property. NetGear was about $75, so I took a chance. It really was as easy as advertised. I plugged in a "transmitter" and connected it to my existing router, then I plugged in a "receiver" in the outhouse. And the system immediately started to work. It's handled a decent amount of CCTV traffic for the last few months without any problems, no adjustments or resets required. It was a good find.
