    Super pleased with this purchase. I bought this for my sons PS5 he was running on wifi and was 2 floors away from the modem and router and seemed to have spotty wifi with bad ping and lag in his room. I thought i would try this out and wasnt disappointed. I tested the speeds before and after connecting this and it was almost 10x the speed after connected almost as good as being directly hardwired. I was very happy with this and so was my son. This definitely solved the issue and Im happy i bought it!

    Good if both devices are high speed

    Works simple enough, very easy to setup. Only gripe is it treats two devices as one connection and doesn't have the option to divide them. For average use this isn't an issue, but if one device you hard wire into is significantly slower than the other it'll slow down the faster device. Just something to be aware of, overall i's a reliable solid connection that was easy to setup.

    Bought this to move the wireless access points from Dish hopper to another room. Really simple to set up and now have great connection to all tvs in the house due to this allowing me to relocate the Access points without running an ethernet cable to another room.

    If you need to run Ethernet downstairs or maybe just set up a little work station for the kids to do homework this is a good product for it. I’m using this to plug in a Google WiFi mesh puck so I can have higher speeds. This works right out the box and likely allows another Ethernet port. I doubt I’ll use it but it’s an option now. It’s not as far as a direct cat6 cable but it’s good enough and cheaper than 100ft of cat6 with the need to cut into drywall and fish cable through walls. If you can do that, don’t buy this but otherwise it’s good. FYI: The only flaw ...if you need to plug something above it may not fit. Regular plugs will but any square plug likely won’t.

    This product is not only easy to install, but works as advertised. I was using WiFi for the X BOX and BluRay entertainment system but it took forever to download new games or update new games plus movies occasionally buffered when streaming. This product fixed it and now my download speed almost matches what I am paying for that enter my house. Definitely works and much cheaper and easier than buying Ethernet cable and direct wiring from the base router.

    Super easy to setup. It really is just a matter of connecting this to the router and hitting two buttons. The speeds are good, just like a normal ethernet connection. Springing for this model and getting access to the extra outlet through the device is so worth the extra money.

    This Product Keeps Devices Online Better than WiFi

    If you are having difficulty connecting a device to the internet by Wifi, then this product is for you! It's easy to setup! One Device connects to the router via ethernet cable and the other device with it's ethernet cable connects to your computer, Xbox, Television, etc. Any device that uses an ethernet port. For instance, the router is in the basement and XBOX is on the 3rd floor-Instant connectivity without using the Wi-Fi! Or the Television with Streaming Movie just buffers. This device uses the power in the house to connect those devices together.

    Great to use for 2.4 GHZ items in a mesh network

    I have a number of Yamaha receivers that only work on 2.4 GHZ WiFi. Instead of replacing expensive equipment I bought these so I could have a wired connection. Allows my iPhone to hop between WiFi and still work MusicCast network feature. Newer Yamaha MusicCast devices can network hop. The Yamaha receivers allow me to use my own much nicer sounding speakers. These work great and we’re easy to set up. It also extended my range for a really out of the way location.

    Works great, used to hook upy living room TV and switch to my router in the office. No isses thus far. Eàsy setup. Only complaint I have is it covers the second plug in a dual plug setup just enough to where you can not plug in another ground device. Could be just a tad smaller.

    Great product if you have to connect to wireless that is not close. I had my PC from work which was not wireless, I had to connect it and the incoming service was not in the same room. This worked great for that purpose. It was the 2nd product is tried and it was great

    I recently had to change the location I was working in. My ISP was going to charge crazy money to come out and put a jack in another room so I can be hard wired. I discovered the Netgear and so far it has been great. I have no issues with speed or upload. I was able to continue my work with lagging or interruptions. If you’re looking for gaming purposes or simply just to move your work space to another room this is your go to.

    The photos desperately want you to believe that these fit into a regular outlet with room for another plug. This is definitely not the case. While I was able to smash one on top of this it was not a comfortable fit. Additionally, I didn’t get the speeds I expected. I have gigabit fiber but am only receiving about 120 to 140 Mbps. That said, it solved the problem I was trying to solve.

    Great Powerline adapter

    We have loved this powerline adapter to be able to hardwire a speedy internet connection from downstairs to upstairs on same circuit. We would like to see this product have a smaller top to help allow an additional item to be plugged in with ground fault when plugged into bottom of wall socket that has 2 outlets. However, you can plug in something above, that does not have a ground plug. Overall we have enjoyed this product.

    NETGEAR Powerline 2000 works exactly as advertised

    NETGEAR Powerline 2000 allows you to use your home electrical system as internet network. I used it to connect a WiFi transmitter to the modem which is on the other end of our house and on a different floor. I plugged one into the outlet near the modem and the other in an outlet above our second store playroom (above the garage), about 65 ft away. It works just like it was connected with ethernet cable 3 feet away. The WiFi transmitter runs a 65in UHD smart TV, a Wii system, and two computers in adjacent rooms. At under $100, it sure beats wiring an ethernet cable.

    Netgear Powerline 2000 Is An Excellent Product

    Needed a Internet extender and two port router. The Powerline 2000 covered both needs in one unit. Previously I was using a second WiFi modem/router connected exclusively on 5 GHz to my primary router as an extender to connect my NAS and desktop computer to my home WiFi and the Internet and had occasional problems with the second router. The Netgear Powerline 2000 provides a faster link and so far (6 weeks) has worked flawlessly.
