Review on 💨 NETGEAR Powerline 500Mbps 2-Port Adapter - Starter Kit (XAVB5602): Boost Your Home Network Speed with this High-Performance Adapter by Antonio Cummings

Others here have complained that XAVNB2001 is difficult to set up. I have to live right. Mine worked right out of the box and was very easy to set up with the CD that came with it. Here's what I did and my gear: Motorola SURFboard SB5101 cable modem, Cisco RT31P2 broadband router (wired) with phone connections. WRT54G Broadband G WiFi Router (Folded). You connect through a wired router to an XAV2001 that uses power lines to connect to an XAVNB2001 and an XAV2001 connected to a Cisco E2000 Advanced Wireless-N Broadband Router in the basement (allowing the router to function as both a wireless access port and a switch for four additional wired connections. It was a good solution for a large house that used to be unable to get good WiFi even with two Linksys repeaters. Now the WiFi connection throughout the house is almost error-free. I use still wifi repeater in two bedrooms for better coverage was very easy I connected the computer directly to the XAV2001 main unit and then connected the XAVNB2001 to the same outlet via a wireless router (which I disconnected from all other inputs). The two units have married before I could install the CD software using software n I set up the SSID and password in about a minute and confirmed the connection and communication between us. in units. I disabled XAVNB2001 and moved it to the final destination. The upstream and downstream speeds range from 155 to 197 Mbps. Good enough for me! The block below is much less responsive, but it goes through two boxes of circuit breakers (again, the house is big). However, it gets around 50-60Mbps, so I'm very happy. The second XAV2001 was recognized by the software immediately after connection and required no additional configuration. It was moved down the star to its intended final location. My son is having some difficulty playing live on the (Se)Xbox downstairs, but I suspect this is due to the long electrical wiring from the multi-circuit breaker box (he has no problem using the XAV2001 power line socket upstairs). This allows Xbox to work offline or Xbox Live). Most likely the bottom router needs to be routed straight through the 50ft Cat6 cable I'm holding in my hand. I didn't really think it would work, but I was hoping it would. Project for tomorrow or when he has time. The crawl space is as ugly as you can imagine. So he's on his own with that! My suggestion is to plug the transmitter and receiver into the same jack and you should have no trouble connecting and setting up the devices. I used connection guide #2 in the manual and followed it. I hope this helped. Son writes MarkSince found an outlet below that works! I have to admit I'm surprised and delighted! It's been a great purchase so far! The speed in the basement is now 80-105 Mbit/s, upstairs 170-195 Mbit/s.
