Around the house these days Homeplug is far better than WiFi.

I have looked a bit at homeplug, because the new TVs seem to support it,
but really, I am a step ahead, I use the laptop as portable TV monitor to
watch satellite TV, and any file on the server I like.
Using WiFi ! so wireless.
This is an old blog entry, have added much cool stuff since:

It is in this that it shows, and is proof of,
that WiFi is not in any way a real bandwidth problem
This is all Linux soft of course, so highly efficient.
The worlds is just spitting out one marketing term after the other, now
it is 'home plug'.
Really, as far as network is concerned, ssh, netcat, scp, transport stream,
etc... rules it all.
They (Philips, others), want to sell you an 'internet radio', a 'digital picture frame',
a this, a that, while any laptop running Linux with a 5 line script does it all.
With more possibilities and more flexible, and future proof, and wireless too.
Often for less money.
