Conditions:
Cable connection with 100 MBit / s.
100 Mbit / s have been achieved on directly at Speedtest.net with LAN cable at the cable modem successfully.
Terraced house built in 1963, classic zeroing, ie, no separate protective conductor.
A total of 4 650 Adapter Devolo are installed:
- 1 x on the cable modem - Ground floor - (Devolo with a LAN connection)
- 1 x children - 1st floor - (Devolo with a LAN connection)
- 1 x Home Office - 1st floor - (Devolo with three LAN ports)
- 1 x cellar rooms - cellar - (Devolo with three LAN ports)
In general, it has been found that close as possible to the junction box supplies the socket the best results.
However, it is worth all a try.
A trial period of at least 24 hours is recommended, as the data rate fluctuates in part considerably.
So in my office were fluctuations between 150 to 220 Mbit / s to watch, on average 180 Mbit / s.
What is particularly important: the speed is not the same in both directions.
Unfortunately, I had a faster transfer rate for routers than vice versa, which would have been more important to me at all adapters.
However, it has no influence.
Practical test with 100Mbit / s cable connection:
As others have mentioned the statement in Develo cockpit is a pure marketing numbers, ie any overhead is ignored.
Thus, the number in the Devolo Cockpit unfortunately nothing for practice says.
So there is the legitimate question: What to come?
I let Speedtest.net of different adapters run repeatedly, but can determine the following approximate values practice despite fluctuations:
Devolo Cockpit: 140-160 Mbit rich for a download from the cable of about 40-45 Mbit / s
Devolo Cockpit: 180-200 Mbit rich for a download from the cable of about 50-63 Mbit / s
If one assumes a round-thirds of the displayed value in the Devolo Cockpit, you therefore is about right.
The best combination I reached between office and nursery.
Both depend on the same cable from the fuse box Coming.
There are 370-420 Mbit / s according to Devolo Cockpit.
Unfortunately, the 650 Mbit / s are thus unusable for me for two reasons:
For an in practice difficult to achieve, unless you just want the next room, hanging on the same manifold.
Secondly, the output from Devolo Cockpit values in practice has no bearing.
The Devolo nothing for the lines can, I accept.
However, the Devolo Cockpit seems the marketing department sprung and dangles a bandwidth before,
The users, however, is not available.
If you view the effective bandwidth available additionally Just.
Why now I forgive but 4 of 5 stars?
- Not everyone has a 100Mbit / s line, which he wants to spread in the house. For 50 Mbit / s line, it would have been sufficient.
- The installation is easy and foolproof complete without network knowledge.
- Traffic at your fingertips encrypted.
- Who knows cabling of 1963 respecting the power of the adapter that they provide anyway.
- The concept of having carried out and filtered outlet like and confident.
- 40-60 Mbit / s have to try something in the whole building possible, which should be sufficient for 99% of cases.
- No drilling, no mess un's wife is also happy with the solution
- Most faster than Wi-Fi, the fluctuations are significantly lower, better for time-critical protocols.
- As have come up to 5 people on the Internet, are one alone anyway almost never 100Mbit / s.
For a moment I was tempted to give only 3 stars, as both the details of 650Mbit / s on the packaging
who as well as from the Devolo Cockpit nothing to do with practice.
Lens you have to say, the do a good job but the adapter, even if the reality as
so often can not keep up with the marketing department step.
Anyone who wants to connect only a 25 Mbit / s line, can securely access hesitation.
For 50 Mbit / s or more, it depends on the wiring in the house and the desire of the maximum obtainable from.
