With Powerline there's no cable to run so you don't have intermediate
locations - like your attic - that need power. It routes Ethernet over your
home's existing 110V electrical wiring.

So as long as your endpoint device (PC, DVR, whatever) will be around a
power outlet you're good to go.

Ethernet. Plug 'n' go. No cables to run. Drop a switch anywhere if
needed. 200Mb aggregate speed for the home; 100Mb from each access point.
One-touch setup for encryption.

I don't have power where I'm trying to go, but running cat 5 should be
doable.
