Your literally sending your signal everywhere it can go (to anyone who is connected) until the signal degrades. Thank you, i almost forgot about that! You make your network wide open and completely vulnerable to anyone with an AC plug in a nearby building. AC shares a common line from a local substation. So much for security 
Again, not upto my expectations. |
Well thats not 100% true. Most of the time homeplug wont even make it past your 200A main, and it certainly wont make it through your distribution transfomer (look up isolation transformer as it will act the same), so worst case scenario is your only sharing with those on your transfomer. Having said that I would buy a cheap buffalo router($50), slap DDWRT on there and run it in bridged mode.
