I think you can use the Panasonic KX-HGW200. It has PNA2.0 interface and
Ethernet interface. I think you can use it as a router or bridge.

Internet ------> Cable Modem (Room1) --CAT-5 line---> KX-HGW200 ---->
Phoneline (Room1)--->Phoneline (Room2) <------ Desktop (Room2)

Please see again www.practicallynetworked.com. KX-HGW200 is reviewed
on June 27th.
