I have TW cable and modem (Motorola) is not wireless. So...my configuration today is a new Netgear N600 wireless router plugged into the single wired LAN out of the TW modem. My work PC and supporting servers (all 2nd floor) are plugged (LAN) into the wireless router. The remainder of the home (1st floor home PC & blue ray player, 2nd floor PS3, and random smartphones) are wireless.

My issue is that the downstairs PC is temperamental with getting a connection and the LG blueray player refuses to download updates unless it is wired. So I am interested in the NG Powerline (through the homes existing AC wiring)...but I have heard that speeds are slow...slower than wireless. I was considering hiring out the pull of LAN wires from my attic to the first floor. I guess that will cost $200+ so what make more sense...pulling the wires or going with the Powerline stuff? Sorry to pile onto this thread but I believe it is relevant to the OP.
