5 out of 5 stars Quick, easy, excellent value - just the job   August 8, 2008

200Mbps over the mains is now a stable standard it seems. These things are very simple to install - I've got 2 upstairs and 2 downstairs. Network speed is typically around 150Mbps so plenty for streaming HD video. In common with other devices of this type, you can't connect them to a surge protector but they do have their own surge protection circuitry in-built. They are fine to use with double/triple plug adapters though or extension cables (you might need some if connecting to a socket near the floor - note where the ethernet connection is). Anyway - great value, I wouldn't bother spending 50 more for a brand name - these are just fine.


5 out of 5 stars These are superb!   November 24, 2008

I was in two minds whether to get these, as they aren't a major brand. However, I was so glad I did as they are fantastic. I wanted to use them to link an XBOX360 to a Vista Media Center, to stream live TV, music, videos & DVDs.

Setting them up really was as simple as plugging them into the wall and plugging the supplied network cable into the XBOX & Media Center. I installed the software and was amazed to see I was getting 175mbps between the two devices!

A word of warning though - don't plug them in to adapters/power strips, the throughput goes down dramatically.

I would definitely recommend these to anybody looking to link two devices together without having the hassle of wireless, or trying to run ethernet cables through walls and floors!

I used two home plugs to link my (BT Home) hub upstairs to a media centre extender downstairs. It worked perfectly with absolutely no setup needed. I've used the media centre extender to view (standard definition) TV and have had no problems at all. Highly recommended.


5 out of 5 stars Superior alternative to wireless   December 5, 2008

Our house is 60 - 70 years old and the wiring is copper (although thick it's old) and this product works a charm. I have a virgin cable modem hooked into one of these plugs in our down stairs living room and then in our upstairs study I've connected the second plug into an extension lead, which is then connected to my router. The connection has been a 100% reliable so far and unlike wireless it has been working from the moment I plugged them in, no setup and no disconnects and none of the hassle of wireless. I 100% recommend these.

As for choosing this over alternative and higher priced brands such as devolo, all these home plugs have been built to the same specification so the only difference is the outer shell design and the software they provide (which I didn't even use), and maybe a few other minor details ... why pay more?

I was a little sceptical when I saw this product but bought it on the strength of the reviews I saw here. Straight out of the box plugged one unit into router and another into mains socket elsewhere in the house. PC immediately connected to our existing hardwired network and saw the other machines.Music files streamed without problem. Have bought it to connect an xbox to the network I am sure it will work based on my initial experience. Highly recommended
