the powerline Internet service still slower than competing technologies?

The BPL Internet provider would install an RF bypass circuit on each
power transformer to allow the digital signal to go around the
transformers and continue along the power lines.

This is why you just gotta love their claims that they can use the
existing plant for BPL. Hell, around here there are no less than five
transformers per city block that have to be bridged.

At the FCC, money talks and the citizenry walks.
