| Problems for PLC users |
 |
Up
to 400 customers have to share a single PLC access point |
| |
|
|
The achievable bandwidth and download
rate is significantly lower than
advertised. PLC
creates broadband noise but often not broadband internet access |
| |
|
|
Since all users share
the same physical access, data sniffing
can be done and security
is a problem. PLC is more like a wireless LAN in terms of security,
since it makes use of radio frequency. |
| |
|
|
RF
energy is always
present, not only along the wire that is currently in use,
but also in all sleepingrooms and even at all neighbours. |
| |
|
|
PLC can cause malfunctions
of your electrical equipment, such as battery chargers, audio-video
systems, etc. |
| |
|
|
To receive telecommunication
services and energy from the same company will create a dangerous
new monopoly. |
| |
|
|
If PLC causes interference
to important radio services, the user might be held responsible
for the damage. |
| |
|
|
If PLC
field trials are not successful, all cost might be charged to the electricity
bill as „stranded cost“. |
