Question:

Wireless modem that works through your electrical wiring?

I have a crap signal coming downstairs from my wireless modem upstairs. I was looking at buying a better wireless modem when the guy redirected me to this thing that you plug into your electrical outlet, and then there's a receiver to plug into an outlet near the second computer. He claims that it sends a far better signal than wireless because it sends the signal through your houses electrical wires.Anyone have any experience with it? Is it good? Also what's it called because I'm having a heck of a time looking it up online lmao.

Answer:

Ethernet over power line adapters They are better than wireless, when they work. You have to use the outlets directly, you cannot use power bars or extension cords with them. Some have issues when on different sides of the power lines (each half of the 240V). Just try different outlets if having issues.
