I was wondering if anyone knows where to purchase an ethernet to powerline adapter.

Does anyone know where to purchase these adapters in Toronto ?

Here's an example of what I'm looking for:

Powerline? How does this work?

Plugs into the wall.. uses the wiring already in your home for networking instead of running new lines.

They're also working on developing internet over the powerlines.. well actually I think it's available in certain areas right now in test homes.

Brilliant idea, although it does have some drawbacks.
