Anyone know if these exist? Ive found a box (dLAN TV Sat 2400-CI+) that uses the technology but can't seem to find an adapter that will work with any box.

If you are wanting a set of powerline adapters for internet connection. I use tp link pa211 for rooms in house with no problems and ?32 at pc world just now. They are plug and play.

Thanks for the quick reply but I am looking for adapters to transmit satellite signal through the powerlines.

From what i can see of the spec you basically install your sat receiver in the loft etc.. and the powerline plugs and box transmit all information to the main box, Pretty much like the internet adaptors do.
I think i know where your coming from your looking for something which will transmit the raw satellite signal through the mains and then into the back of your receiver, From what i can see these have not been either A:Invented or B: have been but are not yet released.
I did haer a rumour that Sky where looking into the same kind of technology to get away from cables from the dish to the receiver.

Yes thats just what I'm after, hope this does come out in the future as it would make life far simpler, it would totally eliminate the need for cables, shame i don't have money to make this product as you would become a millionaire over night.

I wish i could invent them as well but as it stands who ever does will probably have to invest a fair bit to overcome the problem of interference between the 2 signals, similar to what was done with the Broadband adaptors

Probably already invented in asia, could be a matter of price the reason it's not come over here yet.
