Best purchase i have made.

Very simple to install (the instructions are actually readable) ; Very solid throughput - using Netflix online (very fast) ; Much easier than a wireless bridge

A little bit bulky

When I saw this on the belkin website i was very intrigued. The possibilities of having my PS3, Wii, and Directv DVR connected to my broadband connection was very enticing. Though I am running a wireless connection, I became very irritated with my...

I used it to extend my wifi from the basement to 3rd floor of my house. Works well enough and I get acceptable speeds over the Internet. roughly 20mbps -- I know the advertise speed is higher but those are under perfect conditions -- usually in...

It took me all of 5 minutes to plug these in, connect the cables and have Netflix steaming to my upstairs TV. So far it's worked perfectly everywhere I've tried it in our house.

Having installed the powerline for PS3 gaming - it resulted in significant instability to my router connection. In conjunction with my ISP (ZEN) we identified the powerline as the route cause of dropping my connection 69 times in 12 hours, which has...

Excellent solution for easy networking!

I have now been using the Belkin Powerline AV adapter (second, faster version) for more than a month: it is as good as Belkin say! At first, I could not get a signal and really worried, especially given some of the posts I've seen on the web....
