I’ve recently moved in my new Student House.

We've got the internet all sorted as it was installed today (Virgin Media 30mb)

Unfortunately I’m in the room furthest away from the super hub and my wireless connection from my PC and Xbox are being very temperamental.

I never lose connection, not yet anyway, but sometimes it’s as if I’m not even connected and just stops sending data.


I was thinking about doing something in regards to boosting signals, but I don’t know how to go ahead with this.

Can anyone help me out here?
 
What works best guys ?

Ive been looking at the Netgear WN2000RPT, Anyone use one of those ?

Or has anyone just gone with a good Powerline Adapter and has seen good results?
 
I'm not really sure what im looking at in terms of these powerline adaptors ?

Would this be a good canditate?

Also Do i basicly just plug these suckers in and then just go through there control panel via an ethernet on them to connect them to my network?
 
Opppsss i forgot about the competitor links rules.

Yeah ive gone ahead and bought one of those yesterday so i'll see how it goes next week when its here.
