    Needed to get internet to my office and could not run a cat line and no wifi, this device enabled me to get internet to my office through the power lines with ease of set up and no drop or lag in signal and signal strength. I'm all hooked up with minimal set up time

    Product is decent for the price but I didn't notice as big of a jump as others claimed. I did get a boost, which help for streaming Netflix and gaming, but not exactly what I needed.

    Inconsistent, but it could be user error

    This is probably more due to my house than the device itself. I got this because my house isn't wired for ethernet. My house is freshly renovated so the wiring seems to be new, but I can't confirm. I could only get this to consistently work well with the modem in one bedroom and the extender in the room next door. I'm sure because of the wiring of the house and how the circuits are, I can't get it to work on my other computer in the living room. Will have to eventually bite the bullet and just have my house wired for ethernet

    I was experiencing lag when playing overwatch on my pc. Noticed that my ping while in game was spiking up and down to really high levels. Bought this power line adapter and now my ping is consistent throughout the game and there's no more lag. Definitely a good purchase.

    I was very skeptical to pay this much to boost a signal. I tried other products in the past with no luck. This product is very easy to install and does the job very well. Well worth the money.

    Had router in a bedroom and a noisy QNAP NAS I needed to connect to it. Moved the NAS to an unoccupied room and connected it to my router using the Netgear Powerline AC1200 and it works like a charm. Couldn't be happier!

    Works as expected. Easy set up and easy access. Working over 2 subpanels and the performance is still fine. You do lose a bit of speed, but not super significant. Added router at other end.

    I was nervous of spending money for something that wouldn’t work. I was wrong. Setup was quick and easy. Living in an apartment there is never enough WiFi signal so streaming tv is a challenge. This product works great no buffering at last.

    I have used Netgear Powerline devices for many years and they have worked very nicely, rather than relying on Wi-Fi this enables these devices enable me to use my home electrical wiring rather than routing Cat 5 cable. I'm very satisfied with my purchase.

    Works efficiently, but lower speeds than TP links. Easy to set up but all of these products are. Thus, compare speed with other similar products before you buy/use this.

    I've been using a set of these for the last 12+ months. They work great. Did some basic testing with my computer. Pings were better using the powerline vs wifi. I had this hooked up to my xbox one for a while, now have it attached to my gaming PC. Consistently lower lag.

    Even with a dual band router wireless speeds can drop in many houses. Unless the wiring in your house is really bizarre a pair of these with one wired to a router can network to a computer at near ethernet speeds--they do not have to be on the same circuit breaker.

    After mounting my TV on one wall and my desktop on the othe side of the room I had a dilemma with having my cable box being connected to the router. I had never heard of this device until a family member told me about it. Very simple installation and it works perfectly! Best purchase.

    Decent, but get the upgraded versions of this

    These are fairly decent, but I did end up returning them and getting dual ethernet port ones with an outlet. You might not think you need the extra ethernet port of the power outlet, but do it, it's worth it. Also, these don't work the best over the central breaker board despite what folks might say. Despite getting 1Gb to the house, and plugging one directly into the router, I would only get a few Mbps in the basement. At least the bandwidth was consistent though.
