I was wondering if there might be something better than AV2 Homeplugs, that many of us are now familiar with. The latency on my AV2 Homeplugs recently started spiking and I have no idea why (previously upto 5ms to my router, now 60ms, with throughput dips).
Inevitably, someone will want to suggest ethernet cable networking at this point - It's not an option for my family right now. But undeniably, a good option for many.
I found this, it's a product that allows home networking over phonelines (as opposed to networking over electrical wiring). It's pretty new, probably the 2nd generation of this type of product (Gh.n standard) and quite expensive. I have no idea what the data throughput, packet loss and latency would be like, compared to AV2 Homeplugs and standard ethernet cable.

The fundamental idea seems sound, and there are at least 4-5 phoneline extension points around my home. Presumably, it wouldn't be vulnerable to the same electrical noise that Homeplug AV devices often suffer from.
Has anyone tried this, or a similar product before, or is there any info about it anywhere yet?
