How does it work?
It's simple. The 85 Mbps Ethernet Adapter Twin-Pack uses your home electrical lines to create up to a high speed network throughout your home, giving devices like Blu-Ray players, TiVO or DVRs, gaming consoles, and computers access to the Internet.
Why better than wireless
"Why don't I just use wireless networking instead? I'm more familiar with it."
Because there are some great advantages to powerline technology.
- Powerline products have more consistent transmissions. You won't see the kind of fadeouts and connection drops as you do in wireless.
- Powerline works in places where wireless can't. Powerline will give you a strong connection throughout your electrical system, whether connecting into a concrete basement or throughout a large home.
The 85 Mbps Ethernet Adapter Twin-Pack contains everything you need to create your Powerline home network, and it's very easy to install.
