They also appreciate the adapter's ability to extend network range. However, customers are negative about inconsistent signal strength and connection reliability issues, as well as the adapter's relatively large size which can obstruct other outlets.

    The item was recommended by a Best Buy sales associate as a better solution to my wifi connectivity problem. It immediately and very satisfactorily solved this problem, and at a cost a bit lower than I anticipated.

    I have the issue of having a large home with many Wireless networks in the neighborhood and collision became an unavoidable issue. The PowerLine let me connect the upstairs computers to the router downstairs and maintain high speeds.

    I bought this to replace my Netgear 500 Powerline adapters. These are 1.2gbps so making these a little over twice as fast or able to handle twice the speed. I definitely see the speed difference on my PS4 & Xbox One. PS$ is now test at 75

    I had troubles with my Wifi reaching the furthest corner of my house. I thought I'd try this out and I've been very happy with it. It's as solid as an ethernet connection. I haven't had any problems yet and I have no complaints!

    Was looking to have an internet connection on a different floor from our switch. This saved us $$ from having to have IT install a new port and wire it. Sometimes drops out, but overall works well.

    This Powerline system from Netgear is extremely easy to setup and provides an affordable solution for providing Internet access to the entire home. Add as many units as you need to extend your network throughout the entire home.

    if WIFI isn't a viable or attractive option for you, consider this. simple and easy to setup. it uses the wiring of your house to transfer data from your modem to anywhere there's an electrical outlet.

    The adapter works great for extending a local network. Fantastic for getting several computers connected, and getting a basic internet connection. However, Comcast modems don't support 5G via the Ethernet cable, so while this product did give me a nice solid connection to my 2.4G it was unable to extend the range of my 5G. If all your looking for is a way to create a LAN inside your home with basic internet access, this is the thing for you. If you want to set up a gaming rig on the other side of the house and need that 5G connection, this wont cut it. At least not with a Comcast modem.

    Needed to get Internet signal to TV but didn't want CAT 5 cable running on floor. This made the difference. Seems to have some noise in signal on TV but not significant. Would buy again/

    Got to buy two of these to connect the wifi through the power line. Seem to be working properly. I had not problem. Also I am trying it in a house where walls are concrete, so it is a good way to reach the internet signal.
