    Powerline throughput question

    I came to the conclusion that PLA will not provide the speed or reliability I need, so I have not pursued this further. Harry Z.

    Powerline throughput question

    Yes, you are correct. I should have made this more clear in my post. I'm not sure if I have another cube tap hanging around. If I do, I will try this again.

    Powerline throughput question

    Sorry for the delay in responding. I really do appreciate all the input from all of you. I don't have a power strip that does not also have surge protection, so I connected both power line adapters to a "cube tap" (see attached picture). Using my cable company's speedtest site, I got 355Mbps...

    Powerline throughput question

    Hi Tim. Thanx for the reply. My testing is using both powerline adapters connected on the same circuit. No other devices (chargers, computers, lamps, etc.) are plugged into this circuit. Please see my previous response about checking for other noisy devices

    Powerline throughput question

    Mahalo for taking the time to reply. So, I'm back to the question I have about interference from other devices. I am testing this with both adapters plugged into two outlets that are on the same circuit breaker. No other devices are plugged into this circuit. My question is IF there is a noisy...

    Powerline throughput question

    Right now, I'm testing with both powerline adapters plugged into outlets connected to the same circuit breaker. Nothing else is plugged in on this circuit. Mahalo for responding Harry Z.

    Powerline throughput question

    I'll check on this. The tester I have is probably 30+ years old. May have to buy a new one... All copper wiring in my house. And I think my tester checks the hot/neutral/ground relationships. I had the circuit breaker box replaced a year or two ago, so I definitely have new breakers. Would...

    Powerline throughput question

    So, 75% loss (300 Mbps in, 70 Mbps out) in throughput is "normal" for a powerline adapter? Perhaps I should mention that I am measuring this using speedtest.net in Chrome. Same laptop used in both speed tests. The speeds are consistent through many repeated tests. There is approximately 16...

    Powerline throughput question

    Aloha. I have a situation where I am forced to use powerline adapters to get ethernet into a room in my house. So, I purchased a pair of Netgear PL1200-100PAS powerline adapters to see if they would work. I have 300 Mbps going into the first powerline adapter, and coming out of the 2nd powerline...
