5.0 out of 5 stars Great product 26 April 2008
These were out of the box and working within a couple of minutes. One plug was patched into a broadband switch/router courtesy of the auto-uplink feature, and the other was connected straight into a PC's Ethernet port. This connected fine at 100Mbit/s, which was the speed of the PC's network card. Because it's using the standard network port, no extra drivers are required on the PC, and worked just as well with a Linux based Eee PC as a Windows based box.

There are some restrictions on how you can connect these Homeplugs. According to the accompanying leaflet, they must be connected directly to a wall socket, not through a power-extension strip. They must also be on the same mains ring, which shouldn't be a problem for most homes but might be an issue in the workplace.

These dLAN 200 plugs are not cheap at around £60 per connection, but are a bargain compared to the cost of getting network cabling & sockets properly installed, and much tidier than running ethernet cables on the floor. If you're not planning to stream HD media, consider the cheaper 85Mbit/s Devolo Homeplug , which isn't going to be much slower for most purposes, or Wireless LAN (54Mbit/s). Both of these would be fine for typical web-surfing, gaming or occasional file transfers. But if you want to stream HD media around your home and don't want the expense and effort of laying Ethernet cables everywhere, then these are what you need.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very easy to install 21 Jun 2008
The dLAN 200 was very easy to install. I connected one to my router and the other one to my PC upstairs. The documentation says that they should be plugged directly into the mains socket however I plugged one into a 6 way extension and it works fine. Both of these were not on the same ring main (although they are connected at the distribution board) but this did not cause any problem.

Each plug has it's own ID no. and MAC address. The software on the supplied CD was easy to use - it automatically detected the one that my PC was plugged into. I just had to enter the ID no. of the one my router was plugged into and everything was connected.

I searched around on the internet and on ebay and found Amazon to be the cheapest and with free delivery ! I would recommend these for anyone who is experiencing poor wireless coverage or who wants to stream video around their home.

4.0 out of 5 stars Really easy to set up 23 May 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase
I wanted this product so that I could get BBC iplayer through my Freesat box. I live in a largish house with thick walls and my existing wifi connection is not high qualty. I am happy to report that installation comprised no more than plugging one wire into my router, plugging both units into the respective mains sockets, and plugging the other wire into my freesat box. Just as easy as it should be, and totally trouble free. I have since recommended this to a couple of friends and they likewise had no problem.

So I have nothing adverse to say at all!!
