It seems like every few years, data over powerline rears it's head then
diminishes again into nothingness. I have an application where I have
multiple buildings all behind a single transformer/meter, but because of
the environment, it would be difficult to either lay new lines, or link
the buildings wirelessly. I don't need a lot of throughput, just enough
to run an AP with 2 or 3 users, and 1 or 2 cameras in each building.
I've tested several Power line units over the years, but haven't touched
them in probably 10 years or so. Wasn't there one Canopy/Cambium
conference where they actually wired the hotel with their solution,
which then disappeared a short time later? At one Point even Mikrotik
had Powerline units, but it looks like it's been discontinued now as
well. Are they still the sometimes work sometimes not that they used to
be, or have they gotten better over the years, and there's actually
something useful now?
