Thanks Andrew, I'll head out tomorrow and see if I can pick up 2 kits. I can get the TP-LINK TL-PA211 here. This will then allow me to add Ethernet into the...
Sorry guys but I can't recommend Ethernet Over Powerline devices - they cause me *SO* much grief at work that I wish I could ban the bloody things. They don't...
