Creating a network with HomePNA usb adapters

Hi again... Have anyone tested the HomePNA USB Adapters to create a home network with the Webplayer?

Im really considering using it, since the house is already wired and the USB adapters are really cheap on EBAY.

Please let me know if you have any information regarding this.

I run a 10MB HPNA LAN at my home with 2 desktops (with PCI cards),
1 laptop (with USB adapter) and 1 IAppliance (actually, it's the
Gateway Connected, similar to the Webplayer) with a miniPCI card.
There is also a HPNA+Ethernet Router (Linksys) connected to my
DSL model. All my PCs share this Internet connection and it's a
very stable and fast setup. I can download at full speed from
every one of my PCs. Just don't mix a 1MB HPNA node on your
LAN, because it will actually also slowdown the other nodes to
about half the bandwidth. I hope this helps.
