  • Cheap, Easy to set up, Very good speeds
  • No extra features, No Wi, Fi, Not as fast as it could be, Wasted potential of the AV2 technology
  • For a simple and easy-to-use way of getting a powerline network running in your house, the Linksys Powerline HomePlug AV2 Kit PLEK500 is a fine choice. Though speeds weren't the fastest, there is plenty of bandwidth for streaming films and accessing the ...

  • The Linksys Powerline HomePlug AV2 Kit is a neat set of two Powerline adapters that offer decent speeds in a small, unobtrusive package but are under-featured for the price. At £89 we'd expect Wi-Fi at least, which is a shame as we were impressed by the s...

  • Abstract:  The adapters in the Linksys AV2 networking kit were the only ones in their class to be outfitted with three prongs (the Zyxel AV2 MIMO adapters do, too, but they're MIMO adapters). Avoid these if your home doesn't have grounded wiring, because you won't b...

  • Het mag dan niet helemaal duidelijk zijn hoe de nieuwste powerline-adapters genoemd moeten worden, maar over het algemeen zetten ze wel duidelijk hogere scores neer dan hun voorlopers. Als alleen het opvoeren van de modulatie al zo'n effect heeft op de ...

  • Комплект PowerLine-адаптеров Linksys PLEK500 стоит порядка 90 долларов, однако он обеспечивает отличные показатели пропускной способности — чуть выше 210 Мбит/с. Это значительно выше, чем у ранее рассмотренных нами адаптеров TP-LINK и ASUS. Можно уверенн...

  • Дизайн и сборка Очень простое и быстрое подключение плюс легкие настройки Комфортные для работы скорости Стабильность сигнала ни одного обрыва за две тестовые недели
  • Существенных нет
  • К сказанному выше стоит добавить еще и то что Linksys PLEK500 способен подключать к Интернету любое устройство обладающее интерфейсом Ethernet, а не только лишь ПК и ноутбуки. Учитывая все сказанное этот комплект адаптеров выглядит весьма неплохим "пос...

  • Abstract:  Linksys PLEK500 Powerline HomePlug kit består af to Linksys PLE500 powerline adaptere, der understøtter HomePLug AV2 standarden. Det betyder blandt andet, at powerline-adapterne i kittet er udstyret med 1 Gbit/s LAN-porte. Det giver i teorien hurtigere ne...

  • Alt i alt leverer dette produkt varen, det var rigtig spændende at se om det virkede, meget nemt og simpelt at bruge. I starten havde jeg ellers min tvivl da man hører en masse om at netværkskabler skal være skærmet og par snoede osv. osv. men det er åben...

  • Pænt, hvidt, design, “Idiotsikker” installation og opsætning
  • Forholdsvis høj pris, Svingende hastighed/ydelse
  • Powerline er efter min mening et genialt koncept, da det løser flere problemer, bl.a. der oprettes en ethernet-forbindelse hvor som helst i hjemmet, eksempelvis der hvor det trådløse netværk rækker dårligt eller måske slet ikke er tilgængeligt. Det kunne...
