I remember that idea of distributing Internet to houses via power
lines and the transformer issues, but there are not transformers
inside a single house, are there?

Ethernet over PLC can be an option inside a house, when walls block
Wi-Fi signal from the main router in the living room. Of course, fiber
would be better, but a couple of PLC modems is easier to get and it
works more or less (I was getting 10 Mbit/s link).

Regards,

David
