    A little bit pricey, but does the job. Only complaint is that connection is a little slower than expected. Overall, I am happy though.

    This was in addition to an existing network that already had a few powerline adapters. Could not get the encryption working with the existing, even filed a support case with NetGear and opened a discussion up on their support forums and they never even bothered to reply or monitor their support forum so this went back to the store. I even had to fight with Best Buy to just get my money back on this purchase.
