I realise the title is a bit odd. you see atm the set up i have, the modem is hooked up to the master socket to get the most i can out of my rather (very) sucky internet connection. i have the modem acting as a modem only and have it connectiod via a powerline connection to the router which is in the livingroom which is a much botter place for the wired network and much more central location for the wifi too.
however the master socket is in a big cupboard that has no power sockets.
so just now the powerline adapter is hooked up to an extension cable and multiplug poiunt that powers the modem and a freezer too. i know this isnt ideal but the connection is easily fast enough for the pass thorugh of my current internt connection. But....... im about to get a fttc connection hooked up in a couple of weeks.
so is there any way to optimise the powerline network? would changing them to better ones help? how much of a hit would moving the modem to an extension in the living room be?
oh and these are what im using just now. https://www.trendnet.com/products/powerline-500/tpl-406e2k
