Title: Solid linkage and reliable performance, even when slow
Product review: This is a "powerline" ethernet adapter, so the actual data transfer rate depends heavily on wiring integrity and noise levels in the host powerline system. I found that the connection and data rate are solid and reliable even over longer, noisier links operating at reduced speeds.For example, I can get steady 80Mb/s rates from my router room to my family room but have never seen better than about 20Mb/sec from router room to kitchen. I bought two of these adapters and enjoyed so much improvement over WiFi-G that I bought two more to link to the other household sites needing Internet access. The primary advantage is reliable linkage; my Wifi could link up OK but it tended to drop connections and reconect every few minutes (when the microwave fires up, etc), creating headaches for anything more demanding than simple web browsing (like file transfers, etc). "Reliable" and "stable" wins out over "fast," in my view.Highly recommended for noisy homes.
