World Class: Most Promising Newcomer
HomePlug
A Wi-Fi gateway took home our Hardware Product of the Year
award, so we might as well admit it: We're hooked on networking. And anything
that makes it faster and easier is a welcome change. Slow speeds and outlets
the network wouldn't reach hampered early attempts at power-line networking, so
we were skeptical when the first
HomePlug
network adapters arrived in our
office. But solid transfer rates of 5.5 mbps in our tests (the
standard is rated at 14 mbps) with nary a nonworking outlet banished our doubts
quickly. Once the prices drop from their current vicinity of $200 per adapter
and a better selection of gateways becomes available, HomePlug products promise
to make networking PCs as simple as finding and plugging into the nearest power
outlet.
