After a few cases of Covid hitting the office (all of which were false-positives), we were directed by management to finish out the year by working from home. I soon realized that, though I could join the team meetings and see and hear all that was on the screen, I had no way to participate. Solution: Buy a gaming headset from Best Buy!
Problem solved. Finished out the year without missing a meeting while still being able to participate fully. Device was instantly recognized by the computer, which quickly installed the necessary drivers. Worked like a charm. Though I have returned to the office, I still have the option of working from home in the future, should the need arise.
It's not what the headset was designed for, but who cares?

Old expansion network switch had failed and it took some time to figure out it was me and not the cable company. Bought this replacement, which had more ports than the original, plugged it in and was back online instantly. Worked like a charm, and is still working months later!

The best in the Marvel series!

For those who follow the Marvel series, this one pulled it all together.
Without adding any spoilers, I think it had a few unexplained holes in it, but overall, was great!

I have what I thought was a complete collection of Madea movies. Looking more closely, I realized one was missing, so I ordered it. It is as funny as all the others, but not my collection is complete.

Danny Cannon directs Sylvester Stallone in the science-fiction action film Judge Dredd, which comes to DVD with a widescreen transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 2.35:1. An English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1, and a French soundtrack has been recorded in Dolby Digital Surround. There are neither subtitles nor closed-captions on this release. Supplemental materials include the theatrical trailer. This is a fine release from Disney/Buena Vista.

Was missing from my collection

Verified Purchase:Yes
My home server has been giving me some issues as memory began to run low. Scanning for missing movies, I found this one to have disappeared. I bought it to fill in that gap. It has been re-added to my movie collection and I'm back in business.
Stallone has been a favorite of mine over the years and still continues to be so.

H.C. Potter directs Cary Grant in the comedy Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House. Warner Bros. issues the film for the first time on DVD with this release which presents the film in the original theatrical aspect ratio. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Mono; English, Spanish, and French subtitles are accessible as well. Supplemental materials include a pair of radio broadcasts featuring Grant, a collection of trailers for other films featuring Grant, and the Tex Avery directed animated short The House of Tomorrow. This disc became available the same day as a handful of other Cary Grant films including The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer.

Excellent Movie!
on August 11, 2020
Posted by: HammerinHank
Verified Purchase:Yes
I recall seeing this movie as a young kid and thought it to be hilarious. When I built my own house, and went through the trials and tribulations of that event, it reminded me of the movie.
Any old movie with Cary Grant is automatically a good movie, at least in my mind. This movie is no exception.
I originally had a DVD of this movie I bought at a library fund raiser but that copy had original factory flaws (visible flaws) that made it unwatchable. Now I have a good copy!

Missing from my Pink Panther collection.

Posted by: HammerinHank
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was recently taking inventory of my Pink Panther collection and noticed a couple of holes. This movie was one of them. I have always loved the movie series and prided myself on my collection, so had to order this missing gem. Now that I have it, my collection is almost complete. (I'm still waiting for the delivery of Inspector Clouseau (2006), but it is on its way!

The plug-and-play feature worked perfectly.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I had a need to extend my virtual Ethernet in the home to a laptop. Said laptop would occasionally go into airplane mode for no reason at all. As the laptop is being used for work-from-home at the moment, it became a big pain to have to continually reboot. I ordered this kit to give me a virtual Ethernet extension, but had concerns that this unit would not be compatible with the Ethernet-over-power-line system already in place. My concerns were premature, as the unit paired instantly and compatibly with the installed system. No more laptop issues!

So much space!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I operate a home server with now over 90 TB of space. That that many drives, I need spares to replace those that occasionally die. I now only buy high capacity and high speed replacements. This was purchased as a spare and hasn’t seen service yet, though I am dealing with a failed drive that will need to be replaced soon. I love long warranties!

Turn your powerline into a high-speed network with this TP-LINK AV600 Nano TL-PA4010KIT kit, which features compatibility with HomePlug AV, 802.3 and 802.3u Internet standards and a data transfer rate of up to 600 Mbps. AES encryption protects your data.
Yes... the bestbuy customer service agent who helped me, said I could only use 2 of these or the connection would diminish, yet from the answers it says you can pair as many as you need? Whats the truth?
Home power line wires are certainly not the best means for carrying high-speed Ethernet signals from one place to another. In my experience, I have successfully connected one source unit to 2 extensions without issues. It may be possible to add more, but I haven't tried that.

Do I need a router for these to work or can I just plug it into my WiFi modem?

Just bought a Netgear Power adapter kit. One IN and one OUT. Need to add more OUTs. Will Tplink output adapter work with Netgear at the other end? Compatibility any issue or not?

Can you use a power extender to plug it in
Due to the fact that my TV was physically located far from where I could get Ethernet access, I originally purchased a pair of Ethernet over power lines to be able to connect the TV to the Ethernet. I have used them in a distributed manner to offer access to other devices as well (laptops, Xbox, home theater pc, etc.) and they have functioned well in those applications. However, these devices can be sensitive to loading and I have found that their usefulness deteriorates as Ethernet load increases. As such, I would not recommend putting these devices on any type of extension cord. In fact, I believe I recall that the information included from the OEM specifies that they not be connected in this manner, but must be plugged directly into the outlets on either end.

Does it require a flipped cable to go from router to the switch or does it automatically detect and flip it internally?

I have a 5 port plug-n-play switch that bottlenecks my 200 mbs signal to 100 mbs. Will this switch have a 200 mbs throuhput?
You need to make sure your existing switch is something more than a 1/10/100 switch.
The network switch you are asking about is rated as a gigabyte switch. The last switch I had died, causing all kinds of issues. This switch has functioned perfectly and though I've not done all I can to try to bog it down, it has handled all I have thrown at it. I'ts carrying the traffic of 3 desktops, 2 external Tb drives, and 4 DVD players, 2 of which are Blu-ray.
