Linksys PLK300 Powerline AV200 Network Kit Create a home network, instantly—just plug in this kit’s two Powerline AV Network Kit and turn your home’s electrical wiring into a high-speed computer network for your digital devices. Media-optimized HomePlug AV technology offers performance ideal for HD video, music, gaming and Voice-over-Internet calling.
Easy setup: plug one of these sleek, small Ethernet adapters into an ordinary wall outlet in every room you want connected—no drilling or extra wiring required. Quickly network computers, printers, storage drives, Internet modems, and other Ethernet- enabled digital devices. Just plug in to an adapter and you’re ready to start communicating and sharing. HomePlug AV technology is designed to give you fast transmission speeds (in reality, I've seen around 30 Mbps, see the cnet review below for similar results). And do it securely: optional 128-bit encryption helps keep your data protected and private. Kit includes everything you need to get started: one single-port adapter and one 4-port adapter let you connect 4 Ethernet-enabled devices right out of the box. When you’re ready for more connections, just plug in other adapters wherever you want them. The single port adapter connects to your router (or digital modem or computer) and the 4-port adapter connects to 4 devices in another part of your home or apartment. I've had great results in using this Powerline kit. I was able to stream videos off the internet and from my network storage (to computers, game consoles and Blu-Ray players) with no difficulties--reliable and easy to use. They key to successfully using Powerline is to not use surge protectors (unless they have Powerline-specific outlets, like some Monster's products) and make sure that both adapters are plugged into the same electrical circuit (on the same circuit breaker panel) with healthy home wiring. This is a great alternative or compliment to Wi-fi. In our home, we used Wi-fi for our laptops and used this Powerline system for our home entertainment center. This way, we could easily use all of our equipment without bandwidth issues. Powerline is also a great alternative if your home has Wi-fi range issues or deadspots.
