Although the technology for Broadband over Power Lines is available, and companies have started offering the service in the US, it is facing opposition from ham operators and the Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) who are concerned that Broadband over Power Lines technology will reduce the number of radio frequencies available for ham and short-wave radio operators and that RF transmission over unshielded medium-voltage lines will cause interference with already-assigned frequencies.
There are also no set transmission standards for Broadband over Power Lines technology. This is further hampering efforts to have the technology adapted by more Internet Service Providers.
