- Netgear wall-pugged ethernet adapter
This product offers a neat and easy alternative to wireless adapters. You get the speed and solidity of a hard-wired connection and don't have to worry about signal strength. But you do need to plug the adapter directly in to an outlet, not into an extension cord.

- No Wires to run
I bought a pair of refurbished units several months ago when my Iogear units died. So far they have been working flawlessly.
A good solution when wireless or hard-wiring is not an option. Maximum transfer rate of 14Mbps is much slower than hard wired or wireless but more than adequate for DSL. (Note actual transfer rate is typically slower than the advertised maximum, depends on wiring and distance. In my case transfer rate is approximately 10Mbps.)
CAUTION! The instructions tell you to plug units directly into wall outlets. Do not use extension cords or surge suppressors. BELIEVE IT!

- Great product
This is the best way to network your computers. I tried wireless but I always had dead zones. I have 3 computers and my direct tv hooked up and they run perfectly. It is very easy to set up. You plug it in a wall and hook up your computer and its done.

- Did not suit my needs, inconvenient size and incompatible with Playstation 2
The first thing I noticed when trying this product is that it clearly states it will not work with surge protectors or extension cords. For those with multiple wall outlets, this should not be too big of a problem if not for the following.

1. Giant sized item with large rounded top means once you plug this into the wall, the 2nd outlet is BLOCKED. 1 outlet per unit, and you can not plug in anything else.

2. Worked great for a laptop PC I used for testing. Absolutely will not work at all for my Playstation 2 (the reason I bought it)
- I tested PS2 directly into the router and it worked fine. It simply gets no connection when trying it through bridge

3. Since this was not plug and play for the PS2, and due to the giant size hogging up wall plug real estate and effectively blocking any other use of the wall plug, I can not recommend this item to PS2 users.

- A bit better than the wireless version
A few months ago, I got the standard base & wireless extender "kit." I was thrilled, because our one standard single wireless router never covered our house at all well. So far so good: worked in 5 seconds and fine internet connection.

Now I work for a new employer and I'm constantly home-office using my labtop on a remote server. Perhaps because of the complex handshake & firewalls and sensitivity to any connection change, my wireless Powerline connection to the office server seemed jumpy and occassionally closed and I had to reenter with password. (REGULAR internet was fine.)

My workday is now desk-based in a room distant from our DSL modem, I decided to try the cord-based extender XE102. It also plugs into a remote electric outlet in your home, but connects to PC with a short cord. I've gone from "happy" to "happier": my home-to-office server connection is now solid and fast. XE102 worked in 5 seconds too, just like the original wireless extender did from the original kit.

NOTE: This item here, XE102 is only the remote extender. You need to base which sits next to your modem and sends the internet into your electric grid. The base is sold as a kit which includes 1 base and 1 'wireless' extender. This is an addition item, a remote, 'wired' extender. /// If I had just been using regular public internet, I wouldn't have needed this.
