A power line communication method is provided for realizing data
communication between at least one first or sending power line
communication partner device (P1) and at least one second or receiving
power line communication partner device (P10). The inventive method
comprises a step of checking transmission conditions of a plurality of
possible communication channels (Ch1, . . . , Chn). Thereby generating
transmission condition data which are descriptive for the communication
conditions of the respective possible communication channels (Ch1, . . .
, Chn). Additionally, a step of selecting communication conditions of the
plurality of possible communication channels (Ch1, . . . , Chn) as actual
communication conditions based on said transmission condition data.
