Hi Guys,

 

Just updated my power line equipment.

 

For people who don't know, these allow you to use your existing home electrical cabling to create a computer network.

 

Great for people who's WiFi isn't great in a part of the house, or you want something more stable.

 

All items are passthrough units, so you don't lose a plug socket when you use them.

 

4x Zyxel PLA5215 600Mbps AV2 Compatible.

 

2x Netgear XAV5501 AV+ 500mbit

 

As with all powerline adapters the speed you receive is dependant on a lot of things, cable quality, interference, other things on the power network. Things must be attached to the same fuse box and can operate across ring mains.

 

If you have a decent set-up, surge protectors on your equipment etc, noise can be low and you can receive upto 500/600mbit (full duplex, so roughtly 250/300mbit each way)

 

In this sale, the Netgear units are not compatible with the Zyxels as they are different standards.

 

They all work fine, i've only upgraded to ones with more Ethernet ports.

 

Netgear - £20 each

Zyxel - £35 each
