Unreliable. Very laggy & unstable before 15-30min after you start your computer. It seems like it needs times to wake of a sleep before starting to work well. Utilities to check adapter doesn't work. It doesn't see anything so I can't check if I need to update  firmware. (Read More)

I bought those things to connect my TV on my network (my tv was wifi before... bad transmition...) and I x4 the rate of my streaming from 30mbs to 220mbs! Seriously if you can't use a internet wire, use your electric wires. (Read More)

Bought it to expand my network to my home theatre devices connected through an older router (as a switch). Speed is acceptable, and it works even through my Cyberpower UPS or a Belkin surge protector (despite people saying it wouldn't) without any noticeable speed degrade. Though it never went to standby mode even all my devices are off. It will only go idle if the cable is physically unplugged. Maybe it's because my router was still "using" it. (Read More)

I got this because a microwave oven sat between my wireless N router and my computer. Whenever the microwave was on my network would die. This gadget solved my problem beautifully. The only thing I would complain about is that it is not exactly plug and play. You have to push the little black sync button on both of them before they would pair up and then you might also need to do some power cycling before they would get an address from your router/switch.

I bought this 500M kit to replace my Netgear 200M kit.

Yes the speed increases from 29M to 38M. But there is an issue that I have to unplug it and replug it if I need to wake it up from power saving mode(sleep mode). (Read More)

The computer I use is 1 floor directly below the my router. In the past I used a D-link dwa extreme N wireless card but the throughput was worse than garbage (10-30mbps). Now that I installed the new wall-adapter is get about (50-100mbps). While this is a farcry from the advertised 500mbps, it is still an improvement and I no longer get connection drops like I did with wireless. Still, nothing beats a good old patch cable.
