I'm using 4 of these devices in my house. 2 are the netgear brand, and 2 are Actiontec brand, though they all work together as the protocol is standard. One is hooked to the primary router, 2 others are used to bring wired network connection to other wifi hotspots in the house, and the final one is feeding an apple TV and a home security DVR. These work ok, but not as good as proper Ethernet cable. The apple TV streaming performance is what I find lacking at times. Sometimes by resetting them (by power cycling) I can improve performance, but I'd say 80% of the time it works just fine. I've also used Ethernet over coax adapters (MOCA) and have found them to be more reliable and better performance than the powerline adapters.
