What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Cons
Tp-link powerline is unreliable. Of the 6 units i bought have stopped working after 8 months. Pc says it can't recognise the network and won't find the router. Have to repair ip address at least once a day or there is no connection to the router.
The ports on the powerline adapters are 10/100, and not gigabit. The ethernet ports on it are only capable of max 100mbps.
Highlights
Quality
Not too obtrusive, works well and has twin inputs.
With buying these with the combination of some cat7 ethernet cables my download speed double, great for streaming in 1080 with ease.
They look quite messy with with the network cables sticking out of the top.
Easy to setup, but only 2 cables with the twin port product, so had to locate additional cables.
Packaging/appearance
Worked 100% straight out of the box.
Competitiveness
My pc connected to wifi used to get around 20mbps.

Ive only just set this up so cant comment on longevity but after some internet reading discovered that despite what tplink say you can turn this into a wifi extender by plugging an old router into it and logging into that wifi network using your old login details if your device still remembers them

My office is on the top floor of a 3 storey and wifi is awful as the router etc is on the ground floor

I did some research and found that you can actually send your wifi signal through the electrical circuit of the plug sockets hence buying this

Needless to say you do not get gigabit speeds but they will usually be faster that the incoming connection via an internet router

Not sure why the review asked about wifi signal because these are just power line units and you connect with lan cables
