A method of extending the coverage of a wireless communication network having two or more nodes communicating over power lines network is provided herein. The method includes: providing the nodes with respective adapters, each one of the adapters coupling its respective node with the power lines network and being further operable in at least one of: receiving mode, transmitting mode; selecting one or more time-division duplex frequency channel or two or more frequency-division duplex frequency channels for communication over the power line media, such that less interfered frequencies are used, to maintain or to yield an increase in wireless communication performance between the nodes; broadcasting over the power line, via at least one of the adaptors, signals or information indicative of a central frequency point for each one of the selected frequency channels; and establishing a communication link over the power lines network between the nodes via the adaptors. |
