Well made, convenient size, easy to install, improves internet.
Well made, easy to set-up, and provides a great Internet connection to a previous household WiFi dead zone. The first product I received had perhaps been opened/used (given the condition of the box/contents), but Amazon customer service quickly sent a replacement. I chose not to change the built-in encryption because of household use as well as using WiFi routers at both ends. Everything seems to be working well other than a speaker hum (apparently known to such devices since 2012) which I "fixed" by swapping in a USB powered mini-speaker system which, while probably not the greatest sounding audio, eliminated the hum. It has been a few days now and I'm please with how well the adapter has provided good/fast internet. I kept my installation simple and it seemed to work out as a good/easy solution.Update: December 21, 2017 It has been 11+ months since installing/using this powerline adapter. I am still very pleased with how well it operates. If I recall correctly the WiFi speed in the household den dead zone is something like 36 Mbps which is plenty lots for Netflix and browsing. As for the hum I moved the powerline adapter from my home office to the ISP's equipment in the basement where I used a switch to add ports including one to the adapter. The hum has disappeared from my original/old computer/audio speakers. All is good.Update: December 29, 2017 My second Adapter Kit arrived a couple of days ago. I plugged one unit into an electrical outlet in a bedroom to connect to a Blu-ray player which provides Netflix. Again the speed was something like 36 Mbps. There was no configuration required - it was just plug it in and attach an ethernet cable to the player. One thing I noticed - if the Blu-ray player is turned off then the powerline adapter isn't using bandwidth (which is good for other users in the household) unlike an adapter used with a router which broadcasts WiFi whether or not someone is actually using it. I still have one unit in the box (from the second adapter kit) which I may keep as a spare or perhaps I'll think of somewhere else in the house which needs faster internet vs. using a WiFi repeater.

So far so good. been a few months now and getting arround ...
So far so good. been a few months now and getting arround 300 mbps connection over a 50 feet distance. One unit is in the home with the network equipment while other unit is in a storage shed connected to an IP camera. no issues this far. works great. have not actually tested the speed and see if it remains constant but for my application where I need a constant minimum of 30 Mbps, it delivers.

Watch out for IPTV through coax
Good product, as per usual with these you will not get anywhere close to the advertised speeds. Beware if you have IPTV such as Bell Fibe as indicated by another reviewer, it will severely interfere with the coax connections. I switched my receivers to ethernet where I had it available and had Bell replace the others with wifi receivers. All is well again.

Great way to improve home network without stringing cables.
Really pleased with this. We have a desktop that we'd been using a small wireless adapter with, and it's always tended to run slowly.This was plug and play and has improved throughput times.And, the plug meant we didn't lose part of our electrical outlet.Highly recommended

So far so good!
Product worked straight out of the box. Plug the two adapters in to the walls, and connect the network cables - no other additional setup required.After reading a few reviews about the performance of these particular powerline adapters, they seemed like the best bet and I'm not disappointed. I haven't been able to fully test my max speed yet as they're connected through a 100Mbps switch but I'm happy my internet speed test is getting a rock solid 94Mbps at 10 ping (max internet speed I have here is 150Mbps). I have them currently connected to outlets located on the same floor, two rooms apart, with newer wiring, and fairly certain they are on different circuits.
