It seems like every new home theater device wants a network or an Internet connection these days. Your TV wants to be connected, your Blu-ray player, even some receivers want to be online. Not to mention dedicated media players and gaming devices. If you don’t have a hard wired connection to your theater gear, you can usually try WiFi, but even good connections can be unreliable at times. That’s where a good Powerline adapter can make all the difference.

Most of the devices that are "home plug compliant" work fairly well. They are not immune to all interference, but I think cases are rare.
OTOH contrary to the comment in the article about not needing 500 Mbs any time soon, I already find a Gbs network too slow. <:-))
