SMC Networks SMC-SMCHP1D-ETH EZ Connect Powerline to Ethernet Adapter (14 Mbps) Reviews
Works flawlessly . Purchased this adapter to connect Dish Network HD PVR, which is in another room, to the internet. Connected to Linksys Speedbooster router which is connected to Cable modem and plugged into wall.(Dish PVR is plugged directly into wall outlet). Turned on tv and went to "setup the internet" on PVR and it immediately connected. Worked "plug and play" and didn't need to use installation CD. You only need one of these for the Dish PVR setup as it feeds through electrical plug. Good price/ good product. Note: Ordered and chose free shipping and product was delivered the following day by UPS.

Cons Review
Poor Performance . I'm getting very poor performance when I plug these units into outlets in different rooms (presumably on different circuits).
In the same room, the Configuration Utility shows throughput of 14 Mbps. In different rooms, it shows 0.9 Mbps.
These results render this product useless. To make matters worse, the SMC e-mail support has been unresponsive.
If you buy this, make sure you can return it if you get lousy results.

Short range only . Plugged two into outlets spaced 4 feet apart, got a good signal. Plugged them into outlets on different floors, got a signal so weak that I couldn't get an IP address from the router. And that was only after I switched the positions of the two (I got no signal the first time). So these might work if your computers aren't too far apart, otherwise pass. Find units with higher transmission power (if they exist).
