This concept was tried, and ultimately dumped over here because of the problems David highlights. We’re talking here about people trying to network their homes via the AC supply system. The original idea was to have adapters which one plugged into the AC outlets, and the networking adapters then talked to the computers via a standard LAN interface. The system was, as I said, extensively tried about 20 years or so back and it was ultimately dumped.
