Down by £7. 2 Ethernet ports make this a great deal

These (like many others) only have 100Mbps interfaces. I just do not understand why manufacturers do this. Are they saying there's no point having Gb interfaces because the devices will never exceed 100Mbps? Is the advertised 500Mbps just a marketing gimmick or are 500Mbps devices just more likely to get closer to 100Mbps than, say, a 200MBps powerline extender? What's going on?

Am I doing something wrong with these? I bought two pair of them but it seems to me that I need to have each of them connected to the router so that makes it only two available to use out of a pack of 4. Am sure I must be doing something wrong. Thanks for any tips.

Connect 1 to router; 2 to a remote point and test it; connect 3rd to remote point - does it work?
You should only need to attach 1 to router and then pair with the others wherever in the house they are placed.

Just one of the needs to connect to the router and then you can have a number of them around the house (that's how rest of them work anyway)

These have a tendency to go into sleep mode now and again which cuts connection. Plenty of videos about on YouTube showing a fix

Pointless as you only get 100Mbps connection established so you will be limited to that between the source and destination. Much better idea to get something that can establish a 1Gbps connection.

How is it pointless ? I have used these for around 2 years now, competitive gaming with a stable connection and a ping of around 60. Downloading big files and streaming video, never encountered a single problem... Really don't understand how you can say they are pointless
