QuestionCan you pair more than the two? So if you bought two sets of these and put 1 connected to the router and the other 3 in different areas in your house for wired connectivity could the other 3 be paired to the one connected to the router?
Asked 7 years ago by LF.
- Answer Yes you can. I have a similar configuration in my home...one by my router which I was able to pair up with the others at different locations in my home (very easy to do...just follow the instruction given on pairing with the other powelines).

QuestionQuestions: I have a router for my Internet. Does this have to be plugged into it? If the router is plugged in, if I plug the other Powerline into a room where I want faster WiFi, will it automatically make all devices in that room faster?
Asked 6 years ago by DiviAruba.
- Answer You have to plug one device into your router and then insert that same device into a nearby electrical outlet. Then you can plug the other device in a basement or any other rooms electrical outlet. This enables you to have a hardwired connection in the room you choose which is faster than WiFi, you are essentially connecting the second device directly to your router by using your existing electrical wiring throughout your home. Works great, I used mine to connect a smart TV directly to my router.

QuestionI have an outbuilding about 20 feet from my house that does not get any type of reception. If I plug one receiver in my house and the other in the garage do I need to get another router to get WiFi or will the receiver provide a signal?
Asked 6 years ago by Ajw37.
- Answer First: the outbuilding and the house MUST be on the same circuit breaker panel or this pair will not work. Make sure that the outbuilding does not have its own feed directly from the power company (which would mean that it has its own meter, too). If you are on the same breaker panel... then, yes, you would need a separate WiFi access point for the remote end. This unit provides a wired Ethernet port on the remote end, not a WiFi connection. There are setups that do what you are asking about... they are "WiFi extenders over power line."

QuestionI have a 3000 Sq feet home with a electrical box that looks like has 2 sections (Sorry about possibly wrong terminology). My understanding the outlets need to be on the same box. How do I test that?

QuestionHow far into my electrical network will this work? All the way to the meter or will it only go to the extent of the house circuit breaker box? I have an outbuilding that shares my meter but has it's own breaker box.
Asked 7 years ago by rowlbar.
- Answer I have a garage over 100’ from my house where we ran 100amp service to a new box and these worked awesome! I was very skeptical but these are amazing and I can’t believe they would have worked so well considering how far away the electrical outlets were apart (and in two different buildings) which shares the same overhead feed.

QuestionWill this work with the Powerline 1000?
Asked 5 years ago by Buffarillo.
- Answer Looks like yes, but apparently they will all work on the same speed as the slowest one on the network according to what I found online

QuestionDoes this need any ethernet from the router into the outlet, or just plug it into the outlet and go? If that is the case how do you connect to the router?
Asked 4 years ago by Landon.
- Answer You run an ethernet cable from your internet source router to the 1st powerline pod. Then plug the pod it in the wall. Run an ethernet cable from your device (computer, game, Roku ...) to the 2nd Pod. Then plug the 2nd pod in the wall in another room. Your device is now wired with fast ethernet.

QuestionWill I get 1000 Mbps? Yes or No.I have access to 1000 Mbps. Will I get that speed from this? I don't want to waste time or money if it doesn't even push 800+ Mbps. I get 550+ Mbps via Wifi6 already through many walls and pretty good distance from antenna.
Asked 2 years ago by David.
- Answer No way. I have 1000mbps and this device got ~65mbps max. Returned and use my Orbi mesh

QuestionWill this increase my download speed for my computer because I’m only running like 5mps for my download speed because I’m not wired so will this Ethernet power like adapter make it fast
Asked 6 years ago by Nick.
- Answer Only as fast as the download speed that your internet service provider gives your account. You should upgrade to a faster service that most ISP's like Comcast or Verizon can provide for you. Of course you pay more, but if it's speed that you need . . . . . .

QuestionMy street loses house power during storms several times a year. What is the procedure when the power is restored? Does the system take care of itself automatically or does it need me to go visit both ends of the link and repeat the initial setup?
Asked 1 year ago by Tedr.
- Answer It takes care of itself and sets itself right back up. I've owned this for a few months and only one time did it come out of sync. Simple fix: factory reset by holding the button then set it back up which literally takes seconds. This has been fantastic for me as my wife and i both needed hard wired outlets in different rooms. Only complaint is that it is a bit too big to allow full access to your upper outlet so that shouldn't be a boasting point for netgear. 5.5/5 Great purchase!

QuestionIf i plug one of the power line adapters into the wall, and the other in a surge protector, will it still work fine?
Asked 2 years ago by Leron.
- Answer Absolutely not. As the surge protector was described to me, it is in principle a coil made with two wires wound in the same direction around a core. This creates the action of a choke, which kills anything but the 60 Hz basic line frequency. If you must, plug all your network stuff: modem, router, firewall--into the surge protector. Plug the Powerlines into the wall sockets. The idea is to trap interference caused by the miscellaneous AC to DC power supplies outside of the house circuit.

QuestionDo these block the other half of the outlets or will I still be able to use the other plugs?
Asked 3 years ago by Etone.
- Answer You can get a regular non-grounded plug in the top. Plus it has a plug built into it. So you still have the use of two plugs. One with a spot for a grounded cord and one that is not grounded.
