Want to get some Power over Ethernet boxes ...

[martinturner]

... or is it Ethernet over power boxes?!?

Basically, wireless reception is poo in the house I live. I have wireless router in one bedroom, pc in second bedroom and media center downstairs. Also have a Wii downstairs which has a built in wireless adapter inside.

Have seen these netgear boxes on the overclockers site. Do I need one for each PC and also the router, or is this part of a kit?

Any help would be appreciated ... as to what to buy really. Does it mean the router will still stay in play for the Wii?

Many Thanks

Thats fab, thanks for taking the time to reply.

I may wait a little while as it looks like it may amount up financially. I am presuming I can go half homeplug and half wireless and then get the one for the Media Center at a later date? Just spreads out the cost.

Great stuff! Thought that was the case. Also noticed the 85mbps ones are pretty good value. TBH, the main reason for me is that I do want to transfer larger files from main PC upstairs down to media center. I guess I could schedule the transfers and therefore not need the faster speed.

Thanks again guys!
