Are you sure this wasn't a demo of ARCNet? This sure sounds like the capabilities of ARCNet, except you didn't mention anything about a WAN link using paper clips :-) Paul Werner p.s. The demo really isn't credible unless the barbed wire was rusty and it had cow hair/droppings on it ;-) I actually saw a quite humorous demo of this on an IP Telephony seminar in mid october. The network cabling was made up of a pair of car battery cables (including clamps and all) linked to two huge rolls of barbed wire, old band cable (the white, semi- transparent twowire thingys used as radio and tv antennaes once upon a time) and other non-category 5 cable plus a number of nails, spikes and screws to attach everything. Over this they did the IP Telephony demo with three IP phones of various models and the IP phone software etc. The most fun was seeing all the jaws dropping and hearing (quite) a few versions of Wht the...

I saw a similar demo on the Cisco website last summer sometime. A Cisco presenter showed a streaming video over some lamp power cord, speaker wire, barbed wire, etc. A related story is at http://newsroom.cisco.com/dlls/ts_122701.html and there is a link to the video of the presentation on that page.
