Q. How secure are HomePlugs?
A. Most premises are supplied with electricity at a different 'phase' to adjoining premises - HomePlug signals transmit along a single phase only - so it is unlikely that your neighbour can access your data. But if you are very concerned about security bear in mind that the HomePlug standard (and hence all HomePlugs) have built in 56Bit DES encryption technology. In short we don't think security should be an issue here!
