I have a fantastic idea for something that is like a powerline adapter, but for more than just ethernet.  I don't want to say more, but I know very very very little about electrical engineering and would need enough knowledge to create a prototype.  Anybody wanna help me out or lead me in a direction?

I can help with programming and hardware.

You could probably use powerline ethernet adapters and just use the ethernet cables for something other than ethernet.

Power line adapters use a load to modulate the voltage in your walls because of this it would take a lot of resources to develop your own standard. Just use 2 Ethernet connected micro controllers to communicate over an already existing power line connection would be easier and not to mention allot safer.

Pick up a textbook (how i learned) or google...there is so so much information out there.
