    In overall good but when used with optimum calve services the transmiter may need to be unplug and plug again to get the best performance. This is particularly true after several hours of continuous use

    This item i had bought works really good when using it with your entertainment center, like Xbox PS3. but the only thing i have trouble with is getting my speeds through the product. overall it does work by only connecting it through the electrical outlet

    Seemed like a quick fix for WiFi connectivity without the complexity of adding ethernet wiring; however, the performance does not justify the pricing.

    We went to Best Buy to buy a long 100' internet cable. when I explained our problem to the sales associate which was poor wireless for the XBOX that my son uses in his room he suggested against running the cable which would have been difficult. He did suggest this product. We installed it and it worked and is still working great. No more complaining!

    Hard to follow/understand instructions. Netgear should really work on products that are easy to set up (not the only similar experience with them). I'm using it now but I don't have a clue on how I made it work.

    I am well pleased with this product. The initial thought was deceiving in the instance where the software that came with it made it seem that it would only work on a NetGear router and nothing else, however a little more research proved that wrong. Once I got the install put in place, it was easy to setup when I found the IP address - no issues so far and I definitely works in the residence it is currently being used in.

    Networking equipment seems to have the worst instructions. The small manual is a bit confusing, but when all is said and done, the powerline extender works well, and has a built-in wifi at the new location.

    I saved almost a thousand dollars in wiring my house for networking. Printing, internet, Netflix, VUDU and file sharing without a hiccup. I used the wireless for my cell and laptop and the plug-in wire for my TV, Blueray/media player and desktops computers. The 500 ones work the best. The 250 ones not good for serious streaming but okay for regular internet, printing and file sharing on the network.

    I was confused by the set up instructions as they were a bit vague. It's nice that after the one time installation I can basically just forget it's there.

    Easy to set up. Signal still has some trouble getting through brick walls at certain angles. Make sure to go into the software and turn on the privacy settings or your internet is open.
