[QUOTE="JimCatMP, post: 1151739, member: 103549"] FYI - I've used Powerline for long time with good results [mostly]. Current generation is TP-Link 200MBs units - 2 x 3 port switch units for NAS/Main TV/Smart TV & Dev Boxs 1,2&3 + 2 single port units for TV Server and router Link. TV is ONLY SD, but works without issue or delay, HD content from NAS to Dev boxes works fine.. All units are on the same spur, as is fridge [currently whining and signing behind me], chest freezer, washing machine, disk washer, drier and what ever else happens to be plugged in Reliable and quick however individual units will freeze and need power cycle - less than 1 event per month. When tried using on different spur, performance was terrible - wifi clearly better there for example, so your specific circumstances on wiring & probably it's age will have significant impact on how well or otherwise it works for you. Fail rate - this is higher than any other standard bit of kit I've used - not silly but significantly more, I would not expect 7rs plus [which is my external gateway & NAS laptop] operational life:( TTFN - JCMP.
