Re: Home security
X10 works pretty good but I agree that bluetooth and 802.** is more reliable. The problem with wireless is that it is a lot easier to hack. X10 can also have problems if you have a lot of noise on you lines. We have several chips and X10 development kits that we produce but they certainly are huge sellers. Next hot thing for wireless is probably going to be ZigBee. We are looking at a few home control designs based on ZigBee.

I am guessing there is a lot of noise on the lines and that was the problem. Got what you needed via wireless though
