The superfast Netgear Powerline 1200 kit is a great deal

2015-05-05
hi guys demos here and this is the power light 500 kit from Netgear now 1200 because it promises to offer up to 1,200 megabit per second of conditioned speed but before I got to all excited that's a lie I take a look here this adaptor come with a gigabit network port and that means doesn't matter what type our line connection is to put on the inside be 1200 or 2,000 or 20,000 the most it can do is 1000 at megabit per second which is the speed of the network port and even that is not true because in my testing it has to sustain real one speed of some 400 megabits per second or half of a real gigabit connection so the bad news is the speed is completely over advertised which is quite common among networking devices the good news is this is the fastest I've seen for a powerline adapter so 1200 megabit per second not so much the fastest it is now as you can see here the power to 100 come with two identical adapter and that's because you need at least two adapter to create the very first power connection you plug the first one to your existing router and then the second one to a Ethernet rarely divide such as a TV a computer or a printer and then plug both of them into the wound socket and you're done they've been turn the electrical wiring between the two of them into the network cable so basically this is a convenient and very clean way to extend your white network as opposed to running the actual network cable so after the first connection you can add more devices to the existing powerline network by using an additional adapter for an extra device now you know you can add up to 16 devices for one up our network and that bring up to the question of cost and the good news is this kit here is not very expensive costing to some $80 for two adapters now these adapters are compatible with all the power adapter from other vendors but if you want to get the best performance you do not want to mix them with other for more this one here and also about power networking check out my full review as cnet.com basically if you want to get the fastest probably adapt to our market get them now because if you wait for a little bit there might be others coming out soon that are even faster and that's no lie because I'm don't know this has been the first look at the power light 1200 adapter kit from that year
