Works well
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I did not have an Ethernet port in my apartment to connect my non wireless electronics so I needed something to avoid running 50 foot cables around the apartment. This apparatus did the trick.

Cheap, easy fix
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was having some wireless range issues in my house. I tried many different things and was planning on an expensive network overhaul until I saw this little guy on the shelf. I figured I would try it before I spent some major bucks on another alternative. MAGIC. This little thing is awesome.

Would recommend if you want a stronger connection
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This ethernet device is really good if your labtop has a bad connection with your wireless internet. its like connecting wired to your computer but wirelessly. Your modem could be in your basement and laptop 2 levels high and still work.

Easy way to extend wired network.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed a way to connect a wired network printer in a room too far away from the location of the router to easily run a cable. At first I put in a WiFi extender that included an Ethernet port for the printer, but it was not as reliable a connection as I had hoped. Now it is solid.

Great product for a small house
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I live in one of those fancy new houses that was built after the cell phone. Because of this, I only have one phone jack, so I have to use the DSL wirelessly instead of through a direct connection. With this little adapter, I can plug my desktop in where wireless won't work.

Quick painless Setup
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nothing like plugging in something and having it work right off the bat. On very rare occasions it will lost its connection with each other but that is quickly rectified by just hitting the reset switch. Overall I am pleased with its connectivity and speed

Did not work.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Did not know, and was not told, that the 2 units had to be on the same electrical circuit. Where my modem is located and the location of my TV are not on the same circuit and cannot be moved to accommodate the requirements to be successful. Had to return to store.

Go with another product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this thinking it might be faster and more convenient than another usb network device. Powered right up, but would never connect. There was only 25 feet between router and 2nd unit. I spent nearly two hours on the phone with a company representative. I was not using surge suppressers, I swapped out which outlets I was using, an I swapped out different computers. Nothing worked, and he ended up telling me to return the device.

Best alternative to wi-fi
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I always worry about having a laggy connection when gaming with wi-fi. With this product, it's like I have a wired connection at all times. Truly a great product for those who don't want to rely on bad wi-fi.

Good product to use I n a pinch
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They are great to use in a pinch; however if you can run a hard line you'll definitely get better speeds. They work as intended but anywhere near the speeds stated.
