Has anyone tried to use a powerline ethernet product as a backhaul to an outdoor wireless access point? The thought crossed my mind today that that might be a possibility. The remote AP can be powered by a light pole and electrical service to that light comes from a breaker inside one of our buildings. If the uplink came from the same place the power does, that would make the installation a lot simpler I think. Now that I've had the idea, I wonder...is this a good idea or a bad idea? -- *Adam Forsyth* Director of Network and Systems Luther College Library and Information Services * 700 College Drive Decorah, IA 52101 563-387-1402 *
