HomePlug or Wireless?

I'm trying to figure out how to set up my new house's network. On the main level, I will have my home office with DSL access point. I need two DirecTv access points and one TiVo access point on the main level. I need a DirecTv and computer access in the finished basement. Maybe add a slingbox at a later date. I would love to work on the back deck overlooking the horses, but it is not a deal breaker.

In reading other threads, it appears that security issues are easily overcome, and I live rural now, so the property density is about 4 houses in 10 acres.

I'm looking at cost and performance. I run basic internet applications...no heavy online gaming or resource hogs like that.

Anybody have experience with both systems?
