Does anyone know if it's any useful to use both Ethernet ports on the router?
I assumed it'd double the available bandwidth around my house but doing so hangs my router.

Best to use one port as it's the powerlines that are the bottleneck.

If pass through is not important, you can get 1000mbps for £22.

also has gigabit Ethernet port

No comparison against a peice of CAT5/6 but hot if you can't be bothered to run one.

For a fiver more you can get the 1200 Mbps versions - amazon.co.uk/NET…h=1

How do these fair in terms of holding a connection, I've a set of Trendnet 500Mbps adapters that are forever dropping the connection?
