What is cross-linked at me with Powerline?
- Fritz box 7490 (VDSL 50 Mbit / s)
- Switch Netgear GS105E (multicast capable; IGMPv3) to:
Telekom Media Receiver 303
2 additional devices
- Netgear GS105E switch connected to:
Telekom Media Receiver 102
Fritzbox 3270 as client (2nd-Fi network)
2 additional devices
- 2 Gamer PCs
- Printer, notebook, etc.
In total there were 5 x 520e and 530e 2 x Powerline adapters in use.
Why have I resorted to Powerline 1000s?
During the day were the gross transfer rates quite useful (sometimes> 200 Mbit / s). In the evening, when all sorts of consumer (= sources of interference) are turned on, the transmission rates decreased significantly in the basement. The worst value to an adapter was 28 Mbit / s. If at the time on both Entertain receivers ran an HD transmitter, then the Powerline network collapsed downright and the good old SAT receiver had to resume his duties.
Where the 1000E adapter be used?
I bought a pair and connected to the Fritz box. The second to the switch with the lowest rate. Connected with me 2 floors higher (roof extension) and with the Media Receiver 102. The 520E adapters are still in use.
What caused it?
Very much. Entertain now runs beautifully thanks 1000E adapter (and multicast enabled switches). All adapters connect to the 1000E adapter to the router. One can observe that the gross transmission rates have doubled in the evening at least. The worst value to an adapter is now at about 80-90 Mbit / s. The connected gamers can now use without limitation the VDSL 50 connection. On the 1000e adapters gross transmission rate drops barely 200 MBit / s. Gross transfer rate I've read in the FRITZ! Powerline software or the router 'Home network ".
What can AVM do better?
The integrated electrical socket was missing. On the router I have therefore mounted a 3-way socket. Since the 1000s Adapter and the remainder (UPS with router, telephone and NAS) is now connected. Test, I have the devices connected times into a different outlet so that only the 1000E adapter to hanging a wall outlet. But I could not tell the difference.
