Works great in my apartment you dont have to run the software just "plug and play". Got for my son's X-box live connection but also worked on my PC. Since your "hardwired" to your router you dont have to worry people hacking into your network.
The speed is fine. No configuration needed. I give it three thumbs up. I plugged it in and it just worked. My network upstairs was joined to my network downstairs. It's not flaky like my wireless bridge was.
Each time I had to re-connect it to the computer to re-program the module. After spending over an hour with technical support it worked (Tech support was pretty good).for a few days. That's 3 units I tried. I have fios service and over 15 mbps service. I'm currently using an Actiontec adapter and it seems to be working just fine for over a week now (as of 12/2/09). Then again, the remote unit would drop connection.
I started to question my service or electrical lines so I decided to try a different manufacturer. I purchased this product for use with a video phone. While the trendnet product seemed easy to install, it continued to drop the connection between the remote and the local unit. I exchanged the unit two times (tried 3 units) and each one had the same issue.
I initially tried to use it without installing the software and was disappointed when I got very poor video quality from netflix and youtube (I was using an LG BD370). I am very happy with this product-- I was getting 95-105 Mps consistently. This product works as advertised. I read the manual, followed the directions and installed the included software and presto.-- very smooth HD streaming from Netflix.
The installation was a breeze, and I now have reliable high speed coverage for all of my devices, including a Tivo box and 3 separate computers, throught my house. I began by purchasing a 2 unit starter kit, and then added 3 more. I also have wi-fi coverage where needed, but there's nothing like a plug and play high speed connection to plug my laptop into anywhere in the house where there is an electrical outlet.
