Hi Reinhold, After I got the SB players all recognised and talking to the server, I started checking out the netgear kit and their forums. It seems that when it works it's OK, but that some of the stuff can be a bit flaky. I'm sure it can't be the best answer to networking the house, but running CAT5 cabling everywhere just isn't practical.
I'm going to have to think about the best way to go forward. I'm considering a vortexbox appliance of some sort, and might be able to hard-wire 3 or 4 of the players, to try and make the set-up as 'bombproof' as possible, but there will be a couple of locations where getting cabling in just wouldn't happen without taking the walls down. back to the powerline stuff, it just seems as if some power sockets work with the kit; some don't; unfortunately if you find that 3 or 4 "poor" sockets are just where you want to locate your equipment, then there doesn't seem to be much you can do.
