Expect to pay in the region of £160. I sell them for this, but there are cheaper suppliers. Mine come with the Ethernet cable.

You need to connect to your router so if the router is not close to your TV then you may need Homeplugs. (You can judge yourself whether you want the cable to go from the box to the router) Cable is saving you £40 on the cost of Homeplugs.

Yes this is the future of boxes. It is very unlikely there will ever be a crack for N3.
Once the way to do the CS is more readily available then small local CS rings will be available, moving away from the big pay servers we are using at present.

So what are these homplugs. Cause i will be getting one of these soon and beleive it or not my Modem is actually about 7 feet away from TV

After Google i came up with this 14Mbps, 85Mbps Turbo, Wireless, AV, GIG PLC, MediaXtream, Home Plug/PowerLine adapters from Solwise
is that a homeplug cause it seems to be WIFI supported and i have a cable modem and a netgear wireless router. What will be the better option buying this homeplug or buying a new cable modem

The 85 are the ones I use. 7 feet tho is fine for the Ethernet cable. Give me a shout when you want one. I will send a cable too if you get me the length.
