Question 1

Will this product run on AC 220-240 Volts?

Accepted Answer

I don't think so it's made for standard 110

Question 2

Has anyone used multiple pairs of these with any success? I already have one pair, and hope to get away from WiFi wherever possible.

Accepted Answer

Hello Happy, Yes I have 3 sets of the powerline adapters, 2 sets like this (1ea 1 port &  1ea 4 port) and then I purchased a set of the "refurbished powerline adapters that came as 2ea 4 port adapters. All of them are functioning just fine. I have had no issues in the month or so that I have used them. Definitely faster & more stable than WiFi. I stream Videos/Game/Hulu/Netflix/Music etc.. throughout the house to multiple devices individually & simultaneously. Hope this helps.V/R Paul

Question 3

Can i connect multiple end nodes to one broadcast unit?

Accepted Answer

You would need to hook a network switch to it and then you could hook up multiple units. This device does not work well unless on the same electrical circuit as the sending unit.

Question 4

Will this product give me the same speed as if I was plugging my laptop straight into the router via Ethernet?

Accepted Answer

I didn't do a direct comparison because when I did a speed test on the power line adaptor it was so high that I didn't bother testing at the router but yes if plugged into the same circuit as the router you will be in good shape. In a house you have 240 volt 2 phase power that is split into two 120 volt single phase which is the left and right sides at the circuit breaker panel. I had lost speed 90% lower than expected when I was on the right side of the panel and the router was on the left side, it's supposed to work across the phases but not in my case... Its possible there was a lot of electrical noise on the right circuit from kitchen/furnace etc. When I moved the power line adaptor to the same circuit as my router no problems. I have had it about two months and is much more reliable than my wireless range extender (which does not work well at all and don't recommend them under any circumstances) hope this helps someone
