<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'>They worked more often than they
didn't, but these units were by no means a panacea. We could deliver a quality
5Mb/s stream to end users over ADSL2+ 90% of the time (this was 2005/6 -
probably more crosstalk in neighbourhoods now), but the EoP solution had about
a 60% hit rate.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'>Dense apartment blocks and old
houses had the biggest issues, and as we were working with streaming video at
the time it was difficult to accept any less than perfect. I would presume that
the newer standard now has some better DSM-style smarts that can deal with some
of the power cabling issues we encountered.<o:p></o:p></p>
