    Was skeptical about it actually running through the electrical lines in the has but it has not disappointed me. My internet cable and my office are on opposite corners of my house and I was frustrated with just wireless connection. Now I can get my stuff done quickly!

    We had a wi-fi dead spot in our bedroom and bought this item to remedy the issue. It was simple to set up the one portion to our router and then we plugged the wall adapter in a central location that fixed the problem. Now the signal in our bedroom is great!

    I thought I’d need to buy an expensive mesh system in order to get wifi coverage to the front of my house, so I was pleasantly surprised when I plugged this in and it worked great. Coverage was extended with no loss of bandwidth.

    I really thought this was going to be a difficult set up. It was the easiest thing and ever and works so well. The internet is installed in the living room of the house and the extended is in the garage. Great reach!

    Works great! Internet is obviously toned down from the actual speed, but comes through reliable. Does exactly what it says without having to run wires. Very satisfied!

    I like this over other extenders because you can transmit through your home's wall power lines from your main router to the location you want to put more wifi out from.

    I went to the Best Buy store expecting to purchase a more expensive WiFi Extender to increase signal strength to my basement. The Sales Associate suggested this Powerline product instead--it was significantly less expensive and resolved my issue!

    I was skeptical at first about this providing quality internet but it does a great job even when jumping through a main panel and down through a subpanel into the basement area. I get a great signal and the wireless reproduction of my main home WiFi is great as well

    Salesman told me this would work in my detached garage and I was skeptical ! Let me tell you it works perfectly. Now I can monitor my garage door being opened now because I have it. It works so good that I have full range about 100' from my house. Would buy again.

    Have this in my man cave which is an addition to my detached garage. Plug the transmitter into an outlet by the WiFi router in the middle of my house. Plugged in the receiver behind my mancave tv. The 2 devices are seperated by 100 feet! Works great!

    This Powerline works great. I can have access to the speeds that promises without issues. I have installed on my studio with several wireless devices and a SmartTV and works perfect. My router is a Netgear as well, so with the Netgenie app you can control all the settings.

    I already had an older PowerLINE network setup, but needed more coverage, along with WIFI. This system was a snap to setup, and my home network is running better than ever. It is a great product, especially at the sale price they tend to offer from time to time.

    we had a problem with wifi signal getting from the corner of the house where the base is, to the opposite corner of the house, and upstairs, where my daughter's room is. This wasn't a problem until she came home from college and had to have good functional signal for her classes. so, after a lot of research i decided to try this product. i chose it because it has a network plub, but also has its own wifi signal for that side of the house. it works great! there is some degradation from my 200+Mbps. hers runs 100ish Mbps, but that is loads better than her trying to survive on one sketchy bar of the original wifi. We've had absolutely no problems with it. she zooms classes, streams netfilx and everything she needs to do on it.
