Review on D-Link Powerline Adapter Starter Kit: Transform Your Power Outlet into a High-Speed Gigabit AV2 2000Mbps MIMO Internet Network with DHP-701AV by Brent Rosecrans

Revainrating 5 out of 5

not suitable for streaming

I bought a pair of AV2000 to upgrade my TPlink 600 I have minidlna with linux and have been using it for over a year. As soon as we plugged in the AV2000, streaming broke down. this. constantly had to pause to buffer. then play for 20 seconds. Pause and buffer for 5 seconds. Play 20 seconds. Repeat rinsing and rinsing. I put the TPlink 600 back in and the constant buffering issues are gone. I can't find any evidence of firmware updates etc on the DLink site. Oddly, I see that they list it as 701AV, but mine was stamped 700AV.

Pros
  • A dream come true
Cons
  • I'm worried
