Could you clarify what you mean by "power lines as antennas"? Are you asking about using them for communication or energy transmission?

I've seen powerline WiFi range extenders on Amazon before. Here's an example: https://www.amazon.com/Zyxel-Powerline-W...ref=sr_1_7

Have you heard about powerline adapters that send Ethernet through your wiring? I’m looking for alternatives that can capture Wi-Fi and convert it to Wi-Fi signals.

I also used it for testing from EMOS, specifically the emGO model. Likely similar devices exist from other manufacturers. Its main purpose is to extend your range, but it can also act as: - WiFi AP - a router - a receiver or transmitter for systems with just a LAN port. One interesting aspect was its ability to connect via powerline wires, using those cables as antennas. This gave it impressive range and signal strength, even surpassing the RT-AC87U, which remains one of the top ASUS routers today. The emGO device costs around 30 euros, but it doesn’t actually send signals through wires—it lacks that capability.
