Much there is to it: the two really very small adapter see unobtrusive and simultaneously chic. They each have a 10/100 Mbit / s Ethernet port, the theoretical 500 Mbit / s thus are not possible. For a gigabit Ethernet port would be necessary (100/1000 Mbit / s). However, because I want to cover only the Internet bandwidth so that with me a maximum of 16 Mbit / s, and even provides a cable with 100 Mbit / s rarely reaches its full capacity, I do not see this as a problem. Only those who want to use it to copy large volumes of data of several gigabytes over the network, will blame.
FIX: Long-term testing has now been found that the transmission rate sadly disappointed. During my Xbox One wlan n 12-14 Mbit in the download creates, there are a maximum of just via Powerline just over 10 Mbit. This is unconvincing. However, I had one of the two adapters on a terminal strip in use, which is not recommended according to the description. However, it is possible that too difficult to deal, assuming that no other wall outlets are nearby, without yet again having to lay cables from the router to the adapter. Too bad!
Three LEDs on the adapters indicate the readiness of the device itself, the powerline network and the activity of the Ethernet ports. A "pair" button is pressed once briefly, provides in seconds produces a 128 bit encrypted AES-connection between the two adapters, so that the data transfer is effectively hedged.
The setup is easier than ever: simply connect the two pretty Winzkasten into an AC outlet, engage the supplied LAN cable in each case with one end into the Ethernet port of the adapter and the other into the router and the target device. Done. Just awesome. Ingeniously simple.
Processing and function are top, the scope of supply with two LAN cables satisfactory. A star deduction, there is only the purely technical point not to reach 500 Mbit / s, with which is advertised.
