Voice of Experience: I too use a legacy system, which I had connected via ethernet cable to a Linksys gaming adapter. This made a wireless connection to the router, and worked well for several years, but has been failing by inches for some time, and recently failed completely. Connecting computer and router via ethernet cables to these power-line adapters solved my networking problem better than completely, as the system now not only connects to the router but runs faster than before. So I would guess that the cable connection you describe would work. There is, of course, the scientific way to answer your question--try it and find out!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This works for me in the same situation. My router is on the first level of my home. I connected one to the router and plugged in to the wall outlet nearby. Upstairs I plugged the second unit into a wall outlet. I connected my computer and powerline unit into a hub. It works fine.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes this should be able to work but you need some kind of modem in your house also
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If you plug your computer’s ethernet cable into one adapter, and the other one has an ethernet connection plugged in from your modem, then that should work.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This device essentially turns the wiring in your walls into an ethernet cable. So if you plug in your computer’s ethernet into one of these, and the other one has an ethernet connection plugged in from your modem, then yes, it will work. If you already have wifi at home, a plug in wifi card for your computer would be a cheaper alternative.
