Re: lol
said by thongsai  :good point.. if u can get wireless close enough why not go all the way? I would guess the "wireless" setup they are using is very high speed and cost big bucks. This would make the end user units expense. Plus, electric power lines tend to run in straight lines which make line of sight simple. A lot of new subdivisions have buried power lines. In home wireless over a large area would need line of sight and external antennas. You could do an apartment complex with one node.
Also, if they support the power companies energy management setup they might get free or very cheap use of the poles and wires. My power company is offering me $5.00 off during the summer months if the can control my use of A/C during peak demand. |
