Heck,
Why spend money on this low tech junk? Pull a fiber through it, now you have
unlimited bandwidth. (Well, up to the recv/trsmit nodes.) It will be worth it
though! :)

Plus it will not be susceptible to any interference. Now you can have as many
connections as you want. (Once you buy the fiber optics nodes, which you
should be able to do for a few hundred each. Then the switch to allow
multiple connections. Plus the fiber tool which is only a few hundred. Of
course the cable which is not too bad when you get a volume break.)

But then you'll be sitting pretty! Imagine! One of the few who already have
fiber to the home!
