    I didn't believe this could work at first. I have yet to have an issue and I use it everyday for work. It avoided a $200 outlet installation in my office

    It will do what you need it to do but be warned your speed will be massively reduced. I have a 600mbps plan from Xfinity. I used one of these for my computer since my router/modem was far away. I was getting caped at 30mbp download with this device and a very slow upload speed even though it says it supports up to 1000mbps which is clearly false. Constantly laggy when gaming and atrocious download speeds. I ended up running a ethernet cable to the other room where the router/modem was and ran a speed test and was getting 500+mbps.

    I needed to extended from the Router to another part of the room. The Powerline did it and began working before I even knew. No issues so far!

    I need a wireless network extender for the back part of my house so I bought this one. Unfortunately I didn't realize it wasn't wifi enabled. While I have to return it for what will actually work for me I wish I could justify keeping it. It worked very well connected to my TV upstairs but I need it to connect to other devices via wifi.

    These bad boys are a great alternative to wifi. You will lose some speed but the solid connection is worth it.
