    This is one of the best kept secrets in the realm of internet connectivity. quick on-the-fly hard-wire connection. so easy to set up. used it to set up a game counsol for my son in a room that didn't have an RJ45 jack and poor wifi.

    Does the job

    Pretty good. I'm one of those who built my PC so my motherboard does not have Wifi capability, always need an ethernet cord. Since the coaxial cable is never in the room I want my PC in, I've always had to use one of these. It does the job, I have absolutely 0 problems with lag during games, or with voice connectivity. Buffering videos at 1080p is a little more difficult, but for the most part little no issues. The biggest issue is with the download speed. Download speed is significantly lower when this is connected via when it isn't. Games that normally take me about 5-15 minutes to download end up taking an hour or longer. Not a big deal, but it's expected with a solution like this.

    A fix to lousy wifi issues in a home

    This was the second time that I purchased these. They help fix my gaming system wifi connection problems. While great for that, I do wish they could generate more speed through the electrical wiring in the house. Lag is sometimes a problem, versus a continuous problem.

    Got this for a temporary hookup until I ran my router cat7 cable. It works so good, I didn't bother running anything. I didn't notice any loss in the wifi signal. I read a bunch of reviews about this product but I have had no trouble with it. I would recommend this to anyone who doesn't have a good wifi signal to the other side of a house.

    After reading reviews about how intermittent these devices are, I wasn’t sure how well it would work. I located an outlet that appeared to be connected directly to the other outlet and can say with confidence that it’s been working flawlessly. My latency is much lower than WiFi and my speeds are maxed out.

    Easy to set up. Ability to plug in a wired connection is a bonus. Only downside to most of these extenders is that it sets up a new wifi network. I have this unit plugged into the basement. My laptop and phone tends to jump back and forth between networks.

    These gems are saving me from an extra Spectrum service cost. I had 2 modems in my house . My office is in the basement with my Airbnb upstairs. My home office job requires hard wire. And secure!

    This was the perfect solution to my video conferencing problems. I was able to set up a wired connection away from my modem. Easy to setup. No more screen freezing or poor connection messages when doing live video conferencing! Definitely would but again.

    Had to purchase for my at-home job. It’s great if you need to move your office anywhere in the house! Another benefit was that the wifi became stronger in the dead zones of my house. If you work from home, I would definitely recommend. It’s easy to set up and great for dead zones!

    I have an old computer in a distant room. No wifi on it. This worked great since my only cable connection was a couple rooms away. This works much better than running a fifty foot cable through the middle of the place. The connection speed isn't as good as a direct line to the router but it is still faster than my wifi connection on my other pc.

    This item was exactly what I needed. I needed to connect a work device via ethernet cable to my home internet and Best Buy gave the perfect fix. Otherwise, I would have had a 60 ft. Plus I would have had a cable running down my hallway! Love this device and works perfectly!!

    I had never tried to use powerline networking gear before. I looked online at the various products and settled on this model. I could have gotten it a little cheaper at Amazon but decided to get it at Best Buy. Works great and very ease setup. I don't see any slowdown over this portion of my network.

    I purchased this because the wifi on my Directv DVR would not stay connected. This mimics a hard wired network and works well. Even though the WIFI and DVR are only about 15-20 feet apart, I would have had to run about 75 feet of network cable up and down walls, etc. This was very easy to set up and it works great. No holes, no snaking wires.

    This is a very easy way to use ethernet. I didn't even know it existed and has been around for a long time. It works okay but speeds can be spotty. It's a good temporary fix for the price, but I'd move up to a good wifi system like EERO for great speeds.

    This works, but not as fast as I expected. It's about twice as fast as the wireless connection. It goes from red to green periodically for the bottom light. Does not go into power saving mode like it's suppose to either on this voice/internet cable co. modem. .
