It is Ofcom's Job

EMC regs say:

Enforcement authorities

37.—(1) Except in relation to the descriptions of apparatus referred to in paragraph (3), it shall

be the duty of the following authorities to enforce these Regulations—

(a) in Great Britain:

(i) OFCOM insofar as action taken to enforce a regulation relates to the protection and

management of the radio spectrum; and

(ii) local weights and measures authorities within their area;

Every PLT installation is a radio protection and management problem!

Get Your Money Back

Serious question, then: what would you suggest to all those like me, who were using powerline products in good faith (especially if they paid for them, instead of receiving them as freebies from BT), and who don't want trouble with radio hams (or worse, OFCOM), but can't easily switch quickly to an alternative?

And no, "tough t*ts, you bought it" isn't quite the answer I'm looking for ;-)

Complain to Trading Standards. Not fit for purpose. Sale of Goods Act and demand a refund. I ordered Belkins from BT Shop and Devolos from Maplin to test and got full refunds. These are nasty pieces of kit.
