These adapters are much faster than my previous powerline ethernet adapters. For the first time, I'm able to stream video between my Tivo boxes. Also, I no longer have the dropout problem I previously had with the old adapters dropping offline, which required them to be unplugged from the wall & plugged back in again.

Great Remote Upgrade

Verified Purchase:Yes
I finally decided to take the plunge and upgrade my old Logitech Harmony One remote. The Harmony Ultimate Home is a great upgrade! Since it communicates with the hub using RF rather than infrared, it works much better than the One did with some of my components that are behind glass, using the included IR blasters. Also, I now can look directly at the remote screen, rather than worry about pointing the remote right at my components and angling to see the remote screen. Almost all of my settings were correctly translated for the new remote by Logitech's upgrade wizard. The few corrections I needed to make were really easy, making this a much simpler upgrade than I thought it would be. Also love the app control with this new remote. Loving it.

Way faster than WiFi for Video Streaming

I use it in...:Small home
Verified Purchase:Yes
I decided to try out these powerline ethernet adapters to see whether they'd provide better video streaming capability for my TiVo units than the WiFi adapters I was using. Even though the wifi network in my home is pretty fast and has fairly uniform performance, the powerline adapters have proven to be MUCH better at video streaming.
I do have one outlet in the house that has a weak signal, but it's being used for home automation purposes, not video. This location also had a very weak wifi signal, so even the "slow" powerline speed is an improvement.
Be sure to follow NetGear's advice for not using any power strips (or even outlet adapters) if it can be avoided, as they definitely drop the powerline network speed.

What's not so great: Sometimes need to reset by unplugging & plugging back in

Can I get multiple downstream units?

Have a three story home, would like to set up a power line "tap" by the ISP gateway, but need more than just the one receiving unit that comes with the package. Can I get multiple receivers?
I have 4 units running: the one that's connected to my router, and 3 running in "receive" mode; they all connect fine. I believe the units are only sold in pairs, so even though I only really needed 2 receive units, I found a use for the third one, and ended up replacing all of the WiFi bridge units I had before. Since you have a three story home, I recommend that you try plugging your receive unit in at all of the additional planned locations in your home, to check the signal strength. No use in buying extra units if they're not going to work for you.
