How do powerline networks work?
Powerline networks use your home’s power lines to transfer data. For example, a typical powerline network router sends your data to an adapter at your wall outlet, which relays the data to another adapter (that is plugged into a power outlet in another room). That adapter uses an Ethernet cable to send the data to your PC. FAQ. Are powerline networks hard to set up and install? Compared to a wireless network, it’s relatively easy to create a powerline network. With a starter kit, you’ll get two powerline adaptersone that you’ll connect to a wall outlet near your router and one to a wall outlet near another PC. Then, you’ll connect the router and PC to the adapters via Ethernet cables. You won’t need to enter any complex settings or search for the wireless signal. FAQ. My powerline network doesn’t work when I connect it to a surge protector or power conditioner. Why must I directly connect the adapter to the wall outlet? The surge protector sees the data sent over the powerline adapters
