My wi fi card on my desk top fried out awhile ago and had been using ethernet hook up. Upgraded my internet speed and they installed a new router. Went from a one piece unit to two piece unit. Afterwards couldn't get an ethernet connection so I asked the tech about it and was told the new router didn't support the ethernet connection I had via my cable tv connection. Thought I was going to have to replace the wi-fi card, but my computer is years old and had some issues earlier this year so figured based on age and other issues I would go ahead and by a new tower. Went to Best Buy and talked with tech guy about my issues. He steered me to this unit and said it should cover what I was looking to do and wouldn't have to replace my tower. Bought it, brought it home and connected it up. Works great. .

Normally i would have the modem upstairs but no ine could get connected with the wifi. So i moved my modem downstairs and everyone was happy, except for Dad, the guy lagging on his PS4. I did some reasearch, bout this adapter and I'm back in the fight. Sort of speak. It works great and does everything it advertises.

I was looking for ways to improve wireless connections in the dead spots of the house. I had tried range extenders and a new router, but neither did the job I needed. I tried these powerline extenders and I am extremely impressed. In the worst dead spot I was getting speeds of <2 Mbps over wifi... I added the powerline and put a separate router at the end. My speeds are constantly above 30Mbps now. Sometimes it takes the right tool, and this was it.

It did what I needed it to when I needed a better connection in my last apartment. Easy to use, but read the directions if you're not too tech-savvy like me. No idea if it's still the best product for 2022 internet speeds, but I'm sure it's still helpful.

Purchased for our LG smart TV in the living room, opposite side of the house and modem location. I’m checking my house and wireless signal, the TV distance and walls made the WiFi the weakest device in the house at 70dB for signal strength. Hooked this up and boom! Signal strength is low to mid 20’s dB and no issues with lag.
For those interested, use an Android only app called WiFi analyzer; it helps with knowing signal strength (decibels) and knowing what neighbors use for their wireless channel.
It can help in knowing the wireless atmosphere around you and help with adjusting signal strength in the home.

This item was a lifesaver! I had to connect home office and the basement and didn’t want to use a 20 foot wire for VPN device, and this came in handy. This works well sometimes I have a little issue on connectivity but nothing that’s stops it from working; great product perfectly satisfied and would recommend.

This ended up being a great solution for me to have wifi in my shop which is about 100ft away from my home router. Easy to hook up, and it was ready to go. No complaints so far.

I purchased this about 8 months ago to use with my PS4 in the living room that I use to stream movies from my PC, along with Netflix and online gaming. Before using this I would have buffering issues time to time. Since hooking up the powerline I have had no issues streaming. We have 60mbps download speeds from Time Warner, and with the powerline, the PS4 is in the 40mbps range, where on wifi it was only getting 2-3mbps

This is a wonderful product! However it does not work well in a complex apartment settings as your electric sockets must be on the same circuit.
