Purchased this item for on-line play with my XBox 360 based on lots of positive feedback from others, but I haven't had the same experience. Connected everything as instructed, both wall units light up as they should, but I get an error message when trying to access XBox Live. Called NetGear tech support, but the guy I spoke with had difficulty with English and was rather condescending (at least the bits and pieces I could understand). Really disappointed.
This product works much better than the USB wireless device we used to have. The USB device worked for about 3 months and then quit. This is much faster with no interference from any other electronics (microwaves, cordless phones, etc). We really like this product.
Works exactly as advertised. Plugged the 2 units in and bingo, internet downstairs at the TV to run my Slingbox. This is a great answer to running ethernet cable throughout the house. Bravo.
sadly for me this did not work and I sent it back,I replaced it with a different make and hey-presto NO PROBLEM.
Going "mobile", I was able to get very good ethernet connections 5 feet away and 35 feet away from the router. My son, 14 years-old, did the set up by himself, it was easy. I purchased this system so that my son's pc, 75 feet away from our Linksys WRT54G2 V1 WiFi router/switch could get better connectivity. BUT NO connection at 70 feet away. Unfortunatly no connection. I connected my laptop to one of the units. I am headed back to store to purchase a TrendNet TEW-AI86D antenna booster. Failing that, I'll upgrade to 802.11n.
