I bought 2 kits (4 units) for my brother-in-law, to connect his XBOX360, Tivo and my sister's PC (she had been complaining for months about the weak wireless signal in her studio, and the XBOX was also having problems with intermittent connection loss). All 4 units were installed and working great in less than 2 minutes. from Amazon.com I bought a pair of these and one unit fail after about 3 weeks. Returned that pair and bought another thinking that it was a fluke. That set failed in less than 2 weeks. from Amazon.com I bought this Powerline Networking kit for one purpose: Xbox Live. The $100 wireless adapter I bought for our family's Xbox 360 kept losing synch, which caused disconnect after disconnect, not to mention dial-up level speeds for XBL content downloads, game demos, etc. from Amazon.com I was hoping to get at least 30 Mbps from my office to my living room (to stream HDTV, etc). I couldn't find any reviews for the D-Link version of Powerline HD but saw PC Mag and CNET reviews of the Netgear version. from Amazon.com They are failing about 30 days after installation. I've used Poweline products before and have not had any failures. The D-Link Powerline HD devices are junk, save your money and purchase another vendors product like Linksys or Netgear. I'm currently using Corinex powerline products and they are rock solid 60+ Mbps. from Amazon.com Initially they worked very well. The configuration process, as noted by a previous reviewer, isn't completely intuitive but the instructions were clear and I had it up and running with no problem. One module was connected to my router upstairs and the other was connected to a wireless access point downstairs. from Amazon.com Like some of the other reviews here, my powerline HD units died within a few weeks of setting them up. The first time it took about 4 weeks until one of the units died. from Amazon.com Make sure you can return this (and might want to turn off Amazon Prime). Only got 200-300 kbps (far below wireless) from room to room, 100 kbps upstairs. from Amazon.com Mine work fine but both units run real hot..... No extra lag as compaired to my wire setup.... from Amazon.com My wireless "G" is 3-4 times faster. Do not bother unless you are desparate. Other Thoughts: Seems as this is a charecteristic of many powerline adapters. Great idea, poor execution. from Newegg.com
