Question: Do you think NASA should be more private?
Yes, they haven't done much recently
Somewhere in the middle is fine
No way, I like big government space agency
Just get rid of NASA

The Actiontec MegaPlug 200 Mbps Ethernet Adapter

Introduction:

Earlier this year, Hardware Pacers had the privilege to review Actiontec's MegaPlug 85Mbps lineup. Now, with even more innovation, Actiontec has introduced the new 200Mbps MegaPlug line. The 200 Mbps Ethernet adapter has all the same great features of the MegaPlug but with almost 3 times the speed. When used alone the MegaPlug adapters can extend a network from your router to any room in the house through the existing electrical power lines. When used with the MegaPlug 4-port hub the Ethernet adapter can extend a broadband network to two additional computers through common household power wiring. Simply plugging the 4 port hub into a power outlet enables the Ethernet adapter to plug into any other power outlet up to 300 meters away and operate as an Ethernet access port. This amazing technology enables a user to connect a computer to the home network using only one cable from the Ethernet adapter to the computer NIC, while the data is traveling through the existing power lines using 128-bit AES encryption.
