Product Description:

The Actiontec MegaPlug allows you to easily extend the range of your wired network to nearly any location in your home. It does this by routing your network traffic over the electrical power lines inside your walls! Simply plug in one ethernet adapter into any 2- or 3-prong outlet, that is nearby to your router or wireless gateway, then plug the other adapter into another outlet anywhere else in your home. It's really that simple, and a whole lot easier than the convential method of running cables all over your house.

BETTER THAN WI-FI!
Ok, this is more for my gaming console than laptop. Going through the powerline is so much less of a hassle than running an ethernet line under the basement. I recently purchased the Xbox wireless adaptor. It didn't work first of all and it was expensive. I exchanged it for this and was very much pleased. It did the job and I can run it anywhere in the house like its wired.

Easy to setup and works great
I have been using wireless network for years and the connection was not reliable at the far corner of the house. The Actiontec MegaPlug solved that problem. The product worked out of the box without any problem and as advertised.

Great for the MAC
This product works great for the Mac. I have a mac running OS X Leopard, and you just plug this into the wall, and its up and running. No software install needed. Its the cheapest and simplest Mac friendly ethernet adapter out there.

More reliable than wireless and easier than cabling.
The actiontec megaplug is a great alternative to running cable. Works better for streaming video from one room to another than wireless. They could not be more simple to set up. I use them to connect my Xbox 360 to my network so it can be used as a media extender, I did not even have to install the included driver software, just plugged them into the outlets and they worked. They even included the CAT5 cables you need to connect to your network.

works great - better than wireless
After pulling my hair out trying to get the wireless to work in all parts of my house I was recommended to this product. It works so good, and is so easy that I wish I had never bought a wireless router.
