fraid i forgot what the original plan was to do, but if it doesn't screw up
your plan, I was working at a high school in a rural area, that had power to
an xternal classroom  (standalone temp building), in an underground conduit,
and to get the network/internet to that outbuilding, we used powerline
networking (actually a powerline bridge), and plugged one one unit inside
the school, and one in the classroom with a wrt, so we had both wired and
wireless...did the same from my house to the shop/outbuilding (that had
power from the house) about 150 ft away... point is, can you do powerline
networking over the exsting ac cable, instead of running another wire?

Hi. It's not like you think, as there is no existing AC line, and I'm
already set on Passive PoE, but there is something cool about the idea
that if one cannot readily do Power over Ethernet, then an option is
to do Ethernet over Power!

Run a cheap exterior extension cord (assuring that the load is kept
low- no circ saws or toaster ovens) and put Powerline adapters on each
end. Expensive, but still, might be just the solution for temporary
installations. Personally, I keep a couple of used XE102s in my
problem solving kit.

By the way, this is what I bought for my Passive PoE solution:

I may have to chop off the barrel connectors and just splice in the
linksys one, we'll see. But it's the cheapest solution and should
work fine over 120 feet of Cat5e.
