HomePlug in Europe

A reader wrote "I’ve been reading your articles on HomePLUG with interest. However, I’m based in the UK and I’m led to believe that HomePLUG is unlikely to succeed in Europe as it doesn’t meet some of the stringent regulations that we have over here... Do you have any insights which you can share on this issue?"

We replied that we had written about a UK company developing HomePlug products for Europe - see http://www.broadbandhomecentral.com/report/backissues/Report0211_9.html#link9b .

Since earlier press reports questioned whether HomePlug can comply with stringent European regulations currently in force on electromagnetic emissions, we'll look further into this.
