usb powerline?

[TheTripleDeuce]

ok so heres my question, just like ethernet can be used with powerline type adapters and travel from room to room via the electrical wiring, is there a device that can allow you to use usb that way too?

Depends what your hooking up, there are powerline USB capabilities but it essentially turns it into a network device.

For something like that a direct line using extenders would be your best option or a wireless mouse an keyboard since you would experience a delay using something like powerline.

yeah my only issue is i gotta run it about 45 feet from pc theyd be connected to lol i was thinking get like powerline with usb port on it plug in the wireless adapter for a mouse and itll use the magic to get to pc, its just for a media pc so lag isnt a issue anyway haha
