Hey,
In my previous work in ISP company in Warsaw, we tested BPL technology. Its terible latency - ping to local gateway from user trminal unit is about 150 to 900 ms sic! Bandwitch is - 3 carierrs 2 Mbit/s each. And thats all - all band form 2 do 30 MHz full in garbage, we listen with AOR AR5000 rx and some serios ham TRX ( IC-737 ). Our antena is CB Band mounted on Van we are able to detect BPL nois from about 5 - 6 Km.
It's funny, but in this location, people are requested to swith technology from BPL to LRE - about 15 Mbit/s speed, with sub 10ms ping latency to local gateway.
Best Regards,
Artur SP5QA
