Default Actiontech MegaPlug 200 Mbps Ethernet Adapter Review

Earlier this year, Hardware Pacers had the privilege to review Actiontec's MegaPlug 85Mbps lineup. Now, with even more innovation, Actiontec has introduced the new 200Mbps MegaPlug line. The 200 Mbps Ethernet adapter has all the same great features of the MegaPlug but with almost 3 times the speed. When used alone the MegaPlug adapters can extend a network from your router to any room in the house through the existing electrical power lines. When used with the MegaPlug 4-port hub the Ethernet adapter can extend a broadband network to two additional computers through common household power wiring. Simply plugging the 4 port hub into a power outlet enables the Ethernet adapter to plug into any other power outlet up to 300 meters away and operate as an Ethernet access port. This amazing technology enables a user to connect a computer to the home network using only one cable from the Ethernet adapter to the computer NIC, while the data is traveling through the existing power lines using 128-bit AES encryption.

I'm staying away from these gadgets, they are way too expensive and way too slow. oh, the review sucks btw, they did not do any practical tests. Sure the unit is rated at 200Mbps, but just hook it up and see that drop to <10Mbps;
