I was a little bit aware of the Punk idea, but it's always an interesting movement to know about
@mckinley I can print and send it to your address, for those who don't like mandatory electricity just to read the document.

I use IP over Alternating Current at home. The only issue is the bridges forget device MACs sometimes and I get weird states where I can ping a deviceA and the the internet from deviceB. But deviceA can only ping device B even though they are on the same subnet and default gateway.

@xuu I think you mean Power-line communication. We're talking about transmitting IP datagrams by printing them out and taping them to the feet of homing pigeons.
@xuu I've always wondered about how well these network over power lines worked. Aside from the MAC address issues, how does it perform?
@abucci I used a pair of Powerline(s) in the past in a house I lived in the US with my family. They didn't work very well, they were so poor in fact (possibly due to the internal wiring in the house) that I went out a bought a Cat6e outdoor rated Ethernet cable and used that instead 🤣

@abucci @prologic For the record, there's a drastically better alternative than powerline for many US homes: MoCA. A pair of Motorola MM1025 adapters can shove 2.5 Gbps down an old coaxial cable, incredibly reliably. I use some older MM1000s (1 Gbps) to get between my basement and the second floor.
@abucci Its not better than a Cat5e. I have had two versions of the device. The old ones were only 200Mbps i didn't have the MAC issue but its like using an old 10baseT. The newer model can support 1Gbps on each port for a total bandwidth of 2Gbps.. i typically would see 400-500Mbps from my Wifi6 router. I am not sure if it was some type of internal timeout or being confused by switching between different wifi access points and seeing the mac on different sides.
Right now I have my wifi connected directly with a cat6e this gets me just under my providers 1.3G downlink. the only thing faster is plugging in directly.
MoCA is a good option, they have 2.5G models in the same price range as the 1G Powerline models BUT, only if you have the coax in wall already.. which puts you in the same spot if you don't. You are for sure going to have an outlet in every room of the house by code.
