    what do these things even do? i followed the directions, but the directions aren't very clear nor explain their use well-- absolutely no difference in my Wifi speed. Maybe i bought the wrong thing but this is what was recommended by the service provider-- AT&T, now their service is the real joke. these were very, very expensive. Now they're just paper weights.

    This is only great if 100mbps is enough for you. I have a gigabit connection would have been satisfied if it was closer to 400 megabits per second or higher.

    Bought to increase internet speeds in my bedroom. There was very little difference in the speed once I got everything hooked up. Either the product doesn't work or my wifi is just that good? Lol. I also bought this version because I assumed it would only block 1 outlet that would be replaced by the one on the front. I was wrong. While it did give me one outlet on the front, it still blocks both outlets on the wall. Also, the included ethernet cables are not long enough.

    This is ok it’s usually more stable in a large house than the WiFi but still not as fast or as reliable as plugging directly in to the router.

    This product cost about $90 and it while it increased my upload/download speeds a little, the connection was not reliable enough.

    It worked ok but didnt get the speed I was hoping for. Ended up going for a mesh wifi system instead. Still using this for one wired connection.

    This product says it will handle up to 2gbps, but I dont believe it's possible to transfer that much volume over electrical infrastructure. I have 1gig fiber service and the maximum speed I could get was 30-65mbps. I tested it on every plug in my house without any improvement. The device showed this as a "good" connection speed. How can the green light be activated at that speed?....because the product can't transfer more data than ~35mbps. Although I had wanted to have a reliable hardwired connection, my wifi connection speed is ~600mbps at the farthest room in my house. Connection stability isn't worth accepting an abysmal connection speed.

    Didn't work in my home, my understanding is that these devices are hit-or-miss. Try it out, if it doesn't work, return it.

    I bought these to try and get a stable internet connection from the front of my house to the back bedroom. These barely could get me 50mbps with AT&T 1gig fiber. Tried just about every plug with same results. Even used two plugs in the same room and got the same speeds to make sure it wasn't caused by line degradation. Ended up purchasing a couple Asus routers and using Aimesh which fixed my issue with internet across the home.

    This product all depends on your homes wiring. It's very difficult to say if its the product or your home. But it didn't work as well for me.

    I connect my computer to this and made it a little faster. I thought it would make it as fast as plugging it directly to my router. I was wrong

    Not good for crossing electrical circuits

    Despite the rating for 2000, the best that I can get for these with my gig internet is around 200. I have moved them around to different outlets to try to get more, but I think the main issue is the fact that they are on separate circuits in my house. Kinda defeats the purpose of using powerline if I can't leave the room I have the router in though

    It’s honestly a hit and a miss on strength but then again it might be due to my internet. Overall not terrible tho.

    These need to have an optimal circuit set up. My house only got over 40mbps on a 200mbps cable modem when plugged into outlets in the same room. Not too useful.

    These do what you want, but they don't get close to the advertised speeds. They choke the network and max I could ever get was 100Mbps. l

    It works ok. used this in a bigger home and the download definitely was not what it advertised. There seems to be a lot of different factors required to make the best use of. too many factors for the average user in a big home with limited options of moving routers or modems. I have 940 download and 40 upload and the max I got out of this was 50mb download with the plugs close to each other in same room

    Wise to get extended warranty. incase power surge may become defective. netgear only give you 90 warranty. best buy 2yr warranty $10 more.
