Then do the same with the other homeplugs to connect the tivo boxes. These plugs are great for connecting any ethernet product to your home network.

Do you see homeplugs as suitable for TV streaming or just transfer? Appreciate we don't exactly know how 2 Tivo's will work yet in terms of watching a recording held on the other - do they copy over or just stream it from one to another (USA Tivo site implies copy)? If it is copy then homeplugs are fine since just data transfer. If it is streaming then just checking if you have any experience of using homeplugs this way?
I've been looking at the TP-Link AV200 Mini Multi-Streaming Powerline Adapters,
http://www.tp-link.com/en/products/d...el=TL-PA211KIT, they say they can provide HD video streaming with speeds up to 200Mbps but what is reality?
