I am interested in the same information that you are...I found the
site recommended jenwil too...but not sure if it is legit.  Here is a
web page I found for a company that is in the business.  If you did
get the kit from cable maven enterprises...was it worth the funds?  I
am looking to start my own network and have found it hard to find
information on step by step things to do.  Hope this link helps you!
