Soooo.. I'm moving rooms in my house from the large awesome office I used to have to the little shitty back room that was my daughters bedroom. Unfortunately she is getting bigger and my need for a giant office is not very warranted!
Anyway, my coax comes in to my old office and having jumped in to the loft this evening there is no chance I'll be running a cable up there without HUGE effort. So the only real option is powerline.
I have some old (read as: SHIT) powerline adapters which I'm pretty sure are around 80Mbps. I'm looking at the 500Mbps (total) 1Gbps port with the hope of getting at least 200Mbps throughput so I don't get stung when it comes to downloading through my 150Mbps line.
Does anyone have any experience with these devices (at these speeds), any testing?
I have heard that the "500Mbps" is just total crap as I'm pretty sure I'm not getting 80Mbps out of my current setup. Needless to say, if I don't get at least 150Mbps from the powerline I'll be losing effective internet facing bandwidth (currently I'm losing a ton due to the 80Mbps limit on my internal LAN).
Gigabit wireless would be a higher outgoing cost I suspect, powerline is around £100. Router + cards for PC's.
