 Does what it says on the tin...only even simpler January 7, 2009
Jontee (London)
Brilliant - straight out of the box - plugged into router and electric socket on 3rd floor at back of house - and laptop plugged into front room electric socket on ground floor at front of house. Instantly online - where there was no internet due to no wireless signal before. If only everything in life was this simple - and if only I hadn't bothered with wireless range extenders and small bits of string and gaffer tape. It's a Victorian house with several different electric circuits too - so don't be concerned if your wiring isn't bang up to date. Save hours of hair tearing - buy this now - no don't even think "that's almost a hundred quid" - just do it!

Dead easy to install, I think all Netgear products are the best on the market for the price. These plugged into the wall and appropriate machine and hey presto, it just worked! If your wireless signal is pants strongly suggest you try these

These units are well built and have a clean simple look about them (compared to some of the really ugly garish designs of other units). They are pretty simple to get up and running and do the job that they are supposed to.
Unfortunately I have 3 major gripes about them:
1. The software used to set up encryption is terrible (and you are left not really knowing whether the encryption has been activated or not). I don't know why they just don't encrypt by default and save you having to mess around with software in the first place.
2. The units are really big (limiting which sockets you can use them in - especially switched mains sockets).
3. The worst problem of all is that they emit a very high pitched squeal when in operation.
You may not notice this if your hearing is not that good (or if you have the units located in a noisy room) but I wanted to use them to connect to a media device in my bedroom, and I found the noise to be so unbearable that I had to send the units back.
 Great product November 6, 2008

This item is amazing, works really well and was set up in 10mins. Please remember you will need to install the Netgear devices in the same room to start. Makes it easier, give them both their own names and IDS that you want. Then seperate them to the rooms you want and you are good to go.
Well done Netgear, only complain is they should be a lot smaller and the net cable could do with being on the top of the device.
 Very poor October 7, 2008

Bought this to stream HD videos on my Linksys media extender DMA2200 in the bedroom, currently I have a Comtrend EOP which although was stable and could watch TV, it didn't give me the bandwidth needed to stream HDTV.
Plugs are very easy to install, however the bandwidth monitor on my Extender shows that there was not even enough bandwidth for steaming music without interruption!!!! The Netgear configuration utility showed a speed of 4 mbps!! I tested these plugs by plugging them in side by side and found a connection speed of 133mbps - not bad if you want a link in the same room!
I live in a house only 5 years old, Wiring is not an issue here, as I found with the comtrend EOP.
I will be asking for a refund, as I see not benefit in this upgrade - and in my opinion Netgear should be sued for miss-advertising a "HD" product!
If you are buying this product hoping that this will be your answer around wireless - go for the cheaper netgear EOP plugs, don't bother with these if you are hoping for HD streaming.
