Works really well
Easy to set up, works really well and achieves the quoted speed of my WiFi.

Great product, save time and mess.
I'm very pleased with these adaptors, they are plug and play, I have installed a few of them in different rooms, they eliminate the need to run messy ethernet cables around the house, instead using the house internal power cables, which although not as fast as a direct connection to the router, is still more than enough bandwidth for the devices I have them connected too, 4k cloud gaming on my MacBook, on smart TV's etc. I would recommend if you decide to go this route to connect them directly to a wall socket, rather than through a multiple plug adaptor, as doing so will impact speed. I also understand the speed you will get depends on the condition of your electoral wiring, etc, but even so it's worth giving them a test run to find out.

Works on 2 different circuits
Works on and off, generates a good amount of heat.Note: I use this on 2 different circuits but still get connectivity to my garage.

It just works (albeit with a small drop compared to conventional solutions)
It was easy to set up. Not that far from router so can't really say anything about the range. It never drops and does a steady 80mbps. (For context, a 25m long cable was used temporarily and it stayed at a steady 100mbps but the wire went all over the house) Didn't get a WiFi version so can't comment about that. No compatibility problems at all and as said earlier, easy to set up and it just works. Overall, there was a small drop in speed but it was a great solution to having a lack of connectivity and was easy to set up with no issues.

Doesn't increase speed
It does work and setup was incredibly easy, however with a WiFi dongle on the other end of the house I get the same speed using this. It says upto 1000mbs but it's maxing out at 200ish between the units and giving me about 50 on computer. Not really impressed

Saved me from an Apple OS bug
I have lived at this address for 16 years and always had solid wi-fi using various routers, then recently Apple updated the OS and my speeds plummeted when using 5Ghz to less than 1mbps, though 2.4GHz was strangely unaffected. I know another Mac user, who is also on an intel machine with the same bug with no fix in sight using Sonoma.After a lot of messing around I found a solution, however it would revert with every restart of the computer, which isn't really tenable, given that I work from home as a web designer, so I decided to buy these as an alternative. A major reason for doing so was also that I have a router from the same brand, so I figured it was more likely to work well that way.The set up is so simple, simply plugging in both adaptors with the Ethernet cables and then pressing the power button on each unit for them to sync in 2 seconds and encrypt the data. I did need to buy a couple longer Ethernet cables separately, since the supplied ones were not long enough in my case.Sometimes during the day it will temporarily slow down to around 50mbps for reasons that are not clear but most of the time it works at the full 74mbps that my line can manage, so I have decided to stick with these. Actually they seemed to improve after a couple weeks, so perhaps there was some adjustment on the line.We are supposed to be getting ultrafast broadband here soon, but it is good to know these will be fast enough to manage that as well, so I can basically stop worrying about potential wi-fi issues that might affect my work. Also if we move in future I'll have these ready should any wi-fi signal difficulties occur.
