Breaking completley from the standard design for routers, the Orb is striking yet innovative. It consists of two sections: a network homeplug that “transfer(s) the network signal into the normal electricity network” and a wireless router with integrated light-bulb connector. LiteOn has not yet released pricing or availability information.

From the article: “Thanks to the built-in standard light bulb connector the wireless router can plug on to any standard light bulb housing, allowing the wireless router to receive the power and the network signal from the normal electricity network.”
