Rather than googling and finding outdated info, can anyone describe what the security is like for powerline adapters nowadays?
I have a pair of Trendnet TPL-308E adapters which supports 128-bit AES encryption. Once you plug them in and allow them to sync, the connection between them should be encrypted. If I hit the sync button, it should allow me to re-sync and set a different encryption key IIRC.
Now I'm sure it gets more in depth than this but I've heard stories of being able to access neighboring networks that also use powerline adapters. Obviously, I would want to prevent anyone else from accessing my network.
How safe are these nowadays?
Thanks!
