Naked Gas Anyone?

I wonder if this can be done if you have a gas line, but don't have gas hooked up? Naked gas!

RE: Ambient's Most Comprehensive Event Demonstration to Date
Wednesday May 18, 8:29 am ET
Demo at UTC Telecom 2005 to Include New Coupler and Node Designs

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 18, 2005--Ambient Corporation (OTCBB: ABTG - News), a leader in Broadband over Power Lines (BPL) solutions, announced today its planned demonstration for United Telecom Council's (UTC) UTC Telecom 2005 Conference, May 22 - 25 in Long Beach, California. The UTC Conference is a telecommunications and information technology trade association event for utility, energy and other critical infrastructure companies.
Ambient will be located at booth 621 where it will have multiple demonstrations, including VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol), an NMS (Network Management System), a load control/monitoring application, video surveillance and video conferencing. Utility application enablement will be a focus of Ambient's demonstration and has long been part of Ambient's core strategic direction. As utility decision makers from all over North America attend UTC, this is the ideal location for demonstrating Ambient's solutions.

Ambient will also demonstrate its latest version of its X-Node which contains both Generation 1 (45Mbps) and Generation 2 (200Mbps) BPL chipsets as well as 802.11a/b/g Wi-Fi. This demonstrates Ambient's flexible "last mile" architecture.

Their forgetting one last thing, water band, braodband through the sewage. To surf at full speed, do not drink water doing so greatly reduces throughput speed.
Clever?

@verizon.n

Now, what is the means of transportation: copper or fiber?

Your not saying you can use the natural gas itself as broadband signaling... that would be too weird. And even if everyone was ga-ga about it and it was approved for deployment and there are no -radio interferance like bpl- where would this theoretially be installed?

No, I was just pointing out that when I want to get DSL service I must also have a basic phone line. I was poking fun at this new "technology" you could say...

Re: Naked Gas Anyone?

From the previous article that I have read on this, it travels through a line that is buried next to the gas line. So it doesn't really travel through thin air, it does go through a physical line of some type.

Perhaps it works using something like microwave waveguide technology. But I'm not sure how well that would get through valves and other obstacles.

Yes, the signal passes through the gas line and goes to a box near your home then goes through I normal line.

Trend in US is replacing metal gas pipes with plastic ones to combat corrosion.

What then?

Well, I'm my own BIG pipeline, so I'm not too worried.

Re: Naked Gas Anyone?

appears they are using the gas itself as the transmission medium... if you look at their faq they say that they can use both metal and plastic lines...

very trippy.

No No No, it wouldn't be called Naked Gas but "BIG Naked"

Hrm, wonder if that's the implications of me going through the new security xray scanners: »yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=···/0521232
