Nope
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This did not work for me. When I returned it the cashier told me it always gets returned. Buy a wifi mesh system instead. I got the TP Link Deco system and it solved all my problems!

did not work for my purpose
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.product was purchased for an older, 5000 sq ft house but does not work well with the outdated electrical lines in the house. my cell phone was receiving about 180mbps on wifi yet my computer on this powerline adapter was receiving about 10 mbps. I think the outdated electrical lines were interfereing with the connection. this product may work for newer houses but if you live in a larger or older house do not try this product.

Overpriced and underperforms
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was hoping to convert a wireless AP to a wired AP using this powerline adapter. Once installed I got a total of 10 mbps; a huge downgrade from the 25 mbps I was getting with my wireless AP. Don't bother with this, it won't out perform even the most basic mesh network.

Great idea, fails often
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is great when it works but it seems to lock up daily and needs reset. Sometimes it is multiple times a day!

Straight Garbage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I pay for 250mbps dl speed with comcast. I connected this thing, my speeds dropped to 30mbps. Couldnt figure out why. The comcast guy came out and while he was here I thought to myself, wonder if this could be doing it. Simply removed it and my speeds went back to normal. Nut now they are charging me 70 vucks cause the guy came out! Because of this garbage! STAY AWAY!

Outlet obstruction
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unable to use as I could not plug directly into outlet and plug in other devices. With no other outlets readily available in this older house to plug in router, not a viable option. If plug did not obstruct the other half of the outlet it would have had a chance. Need to return

Could be better.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Knocked my 950Mbps down to 50Mbps. This probably is due to the powerlines running trough my walls. End up going with a ethernet switch and running Cat6. I don't think the price to product value is fair.

Depends on Quality of Power
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Slower than our WiFi. It said my outlets weren’t good enough by a blinking red light. Only had two outlets I could use and both outlets blinked red, which meant poor quality lines. My guess is because our house was built in 1985. Returning and getting a 50’ Ethernet cable instead.
