A low-hanging bottom plug design would have been more aesthetic and practicalFINAL THOUGHTSI am super stoked at the fast & stable performance results I got from these AV1000 plugs, something that I never thought would be so simple or achievable

After plugging these in I had great performance and did not have to but a 50 foot ethernet cable

Its performance finally degraded to the point it was no longer usable, and I had no internet connectivity upstairs

2 minute install and reliable performance.

then I freed up some direct wall plugs, and plug this into a wall outlet instead of a power strip, trust me they say to plug it into the wall for a reason, and now I am getting better performance than wifi :

I'm going try a couple other outlets to see if I could get better performance

Overall the performance was a little slower than what I hoped for but the latency (ping) times are consistent and decent.

Terrible performance , get 100 up and down with Wi-Fi, but get 40 up and down on this, returning.

The concept behind them is good but sometimes performance has been hit or miss

They are very stable as over the course of several weeks, I have never faced any random disconnects, hangs or slowdowns in their performanceTHE GOOD- Fast and stable performance that is miles better for fixing your

So what gives?The thing is that, besides the occasional hardware defects which are covered under warranty ( TP-Link offers 2 years, while most others offer one year), because Powerline uses your existing home electrical wiring for transmitting network data its performance is impacted by the following factors:- Electrical interference from other noisy electrical devices like microwaves, radios or from your local sub-station

Actually lost performance over wifi

When I bought a TP-Link AC1750 router, its performance is worse than Netgear Nighthawk AC1750.

Must be on same leg of house wiring - otherwise, very poor performance.

However, much to my disappointment, the performance of these AV1000 unit is truly mediocre

MUCH better performance and range (crossing multiple circuit breakers and 1000+ft of wire at 50+Mbps speeds).Devices like this AV500 only use the hot and neutral wire

Once I realized not to plug it into a power strip (will severely hurt performance if you do) this worked really well, and was simple as plugging them into the wall and it was good to go

You want to keep these placed as close together as possible for the best performance

I think the adapter would be even faster in the garage except for the 802.11g wireless access point likely limiting the performance, but I have not tested that configuration.

Performance is very good.

It does better if its on the exact same electrical circuit than if it's on a different one, but again, play with it a bit to see which can get you the best performance

I was previously using a Netgear wireless extender, but saw consistently inconsistent performance with it

My two adapters are installed on different circuit breakers, so performance could be improved if they were on the same one per the instructions

I have bought no less than 6 of these units, and after 3 months of exasperation due to terribly degraded network performance throughout the house, I've finally wittled away at the problem

My first set degraded (slower performance, spotty connection) after 2 years,

Pairing was a little tedious, but the instructions were relatively clear and concise as to how to do it.

I plugged in both units, turned my device on and it worked as if it was hard-wired to an Ethernet cable

They work wonderfully but keep in mind the connection won't be as good as if you were connected to the modem itself

It streams just as good as if the ethernet cabke was connected directly to the modem!

These little guys are cheaper than wifi boosters or relay devices and not using any of your wifi signal to operate, pretty happy as of right now!

Works as if I was hardlined

The wifi signal in the tree house is as good as in my living room

Wasn't sure if it would work as it says in very small print on the

nothing works as it's supposed to.

We were both stumped as to what the cause could be, but he kept working and trying everything he could think of until it seemed fairly stable, but the problem kept occurring randomly
