- I tried one of the power line phone couplers.
- Performance with a regular analog phone was disappointing. There was a LOT of noise.
- You could hear the light dimmers hummmmmmm.
- I didn't even try a modem. I found that my BSR X10 system operated on the same
- or close carrier frequency. Every time a light switched on, there was a major
- disturbance in the phone connection.

- Modem performance is bad enough with the best connection WIRE can provide. Suggest
- you string a wire.
