The Ultimate AMA Rant
BPL is old and has been banned in a couple countries already for the reasons stated above. We don't need it! Broadband over cable can be a lot faster if the people wanted it, paid for it, and the cable companies provided it. DSL can be faster as well.
If you want real, true, fat-pipe broadband, wireless can provide it. BPL is just an experiment in an old concept that will not work out. Those affected by it are too many, from RC and HAM to Police and Fire. I just wish they would let it die.
