Sky Anytime Plus over Powerline Adapters. Possible?

you can get 'pass through' powerline adaptors like this although they are more expensive.

That's as expensive as the Sky anytime wireless adapter, which is all I want it for.

My Sky HD box is nowhere near my router, so at the moment I dont have Anytime enabled. I was going to look at getting the Sky wireless adapter but it seems a lot of money at £60.

So, first question. Will Anytime Plus work over a couple of Ethernet powerline adapters? I may be able to acquire two for not a lot of money if that will solve my problem.

If that wont work, or I can't get the powerline adapters, is there a cheaper alternative to the Sky adapter? Would a generic USB or Ethernet wireless adapter work?

Did you get this sorted?

I've only just got Sky installed and don't fancy cables across my lounge

Unfortunately not, I was given the adapters but one was broken.

I finally got around to phoning Sky and asking them to enable this for me. I've got Sky broadband, but i'm using a Netgear router and a couple Netgear powerline adaptors to the Sky box. All works, but it's not that great a service :-)

Cheers. Ordered one. Now we'll see how long a HD movie takes to download at 8Mbps!
