Mixing different homeplugs?

[Phill4321]

Hi, is it possible to mix different brands of homeplugs?

I currently have this model

And wish to purchase another brand of 200mb homeplugs. Is this possible?

Homeplug is a standard and there are currently two:

Homeplug: 80mbps
Homeplug AV: 200mbps

As long as you buy something that is Homeplug AV standard (as the one you linked to is) then they will inter-operate.

IME they all even seem to basically use the same chipsets, same LED flashing patterns etc, just different housings.

I have 2 different brands inter-operating with np.

Just be careful with some Belkins and Netgears as they introduced their own standards on some models to try and go faster than the 200mbit Homeplug AV limit.
