I needed to move my wife's downstairs office to an upstairs bedroom. All the networking originates in the office and I really didn't feel like fishing Ethernet cable. If I moved the wireless router, I'd be the furthest distance away from where we use it most--the living room. Powerline network adapters to the rescue! I guess these things have come a long way from their inception.
Bought it on sale locally cheaper than Amazon and I had it today.
Plugged in the units and they just work and no setup was needed! It's rare that any electronic purchase I make isn't some kind of kludgy hack or is unsightly. These are low key and even 2 sets of Ethernet cables were included.
I'm pretty sure I couldn't have hardwired the connection for less after buying cable, wall plates, etc.
I'm serving up DVRed TV from this desktop on XBMC to my Raspberry pi. I'm going to see if the stream is still decent.
