This product worked absoutely superbly for me. I was getting a 50%-60% signal via wireless, resulting in pretty poor download speeds of around 4-8MB (I have 20MB Virgin broadband). Once I'd plugged these in (and I did use an extension lead) I was getting fantastic results, with download speeds of 15-18MB. It was as quick as if I'd plugged directly into the router via ethernet. It's definitely worth a try if you're wireless network isn't great and this could not be any easier to use. It is literally plug and play, no software. Can't recommend these highly enough!

Awesome product; I now have internet access on all 4 floors of the house at a minimum of 160 mb/s with no need for cabling/drilling. I've had very poor results using wireless in the apst so I didnt even attempt it in such a large house. Two sets of these plugs came in under the price of a wireless-n router and the results are beyond anything I had hoped.
They were incredibly easy to set up; pretty much plug and play. I had all 4 connected and my devices networked in a few minutes.
I particularly like the ability to disable the LED's on the plugs remotely from the management software. Several of the plugs are in bedrooms so I can switch the LED's off to avoid having a glow in the corner of the room.

I purchased via Amazon in January 2011 and was delighted to plug and play. The product worked right up to the end of May 2011 when inexplicably it just stopped. I went through all the usual common sense diagnoses and tests - changing cables, swapping adapter locations, powering on and off, rebooting the Desktop......Eventually concluding it was probably hardware failure.
I contacted UK Voice support only to be told I would have to raise a request via email. I duly did so and went through the mill of email exchange to ascertain that I was not a complete idiot and that I had exhausted all the common sense tests that they could throw at me - essentially a repeat of the process I had gone through before I called them.Ok so they eventually conclude hardware failure "so please ring UK voice support". Duly do so get bounced around, put on hold and then "oh you only have 90 days hardware warranty you are out of support! Would you like to subscribe for Gearheads paid support". Well no the My.Netgear site clearly shows Warranty to January 2013 and I evidenced this to them by sending a screen shot! Ok you are in Warranty but we will claim the product is out of stock (but it is in free circulation) more email exchanges, more platitude responses....
Do they simply play the attrition game so the Customer simply gives up, dies from frustration or a stroke of apoplexy!!
Not got it nor have they got it about post sales Customer care. So Caveat Emptor not all is what it seems.
Customer Services no help either no response just a emailed survey link to tell them how wonderful they are....NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Outstanding.
There are many cheaper alternatives to this for Ethernet-over-power. However most do not offer the bandwidth or build quality of this one. Read more
