Powerline Ethernet adapter.......2007-12-28
The adapter works well,was easy to install, and provides good connectivity. I am averaging about 15Mb/s speed over the adapter. I did have an initial problem connecting from one specific power outlet, but switching the adapter to a different ourlet cured that.
Better than wiring your house, more reliable than wireless........2007-12-11
A little tricky to setup, speed fluctuates a lot, but it is better than wiring your house.
Product works great - zero setup - PC & MAC home network.......2007-12-11
I just purchased the Linksys kit and I must admit that I was expecting it not to work. I have a hundred + year old home, a network with both PCs and a MAC, and endless problems with WiFi. The product worked flawlessly. Had it up and running in less than five minutes including the time to open the box and read the instructions. Running Skype video from a MAC to my Verizon router through ancient knob and tube wiring that's connected to a new circuit breaker panel. Couldn't be more pleased nor surprised. First networking product I have purchased that actually works as advertised. I will definitely be buying more of these units to extend network to other parts of the house.
Great Hardware but Obsolete Firmware.......2007-12-01
See also the Linksys PLK200 Powerline AV Ethernet Adapter Kit, which is more economical.
This product is based on a "HomePlug-AV" chipset than runs a specialized type of sofware known as "firmware". Linksys does not design, manufacture, or maintain this chipset or its firmware. An unaffiliated company does that, and Linksys is just one of dozens of that company's customers.
I've purchased about 20 (twenty) PLE200s over the past year--from Amazon and other sellers--and all of them have shipped with firmware version 1.4.5 installed. The primary purpose of my 'review' here is to caution you that hardware running firmware version 1.4.5 cannot communicate with hardware running newer firmware versions. I hope this caution reaches people who have already purchased the PLE200 as well as those who are contemplating doing it.
Version 2.0 implemented a change that was required to achieve compliance with the HomePlug-AV standard. That change unfortunately rendered 1.4.5 unable to intercommunicate with versions thereafter. Fortunately, no subsequent firmware change will have such a devastating side-effect.
"HomePlug-AV" products currently coming off various manufacturers' production lines are likely shipping with 2.0 or later firmware installed. Be advised that if you wish to build unified network consisting of PLE200s and these other products, you'll have to upgrade the firmware in your PLE200s; otherwise, the PLE200s and the other products won't even "see" each other. Not only that, but they'll probably also step on each other's transmissions because of inability to coordinate their usage of the powerline medium.
The PLE200 ostensibly is compliant with the HomePlug-AV standard, but it actually is NOT compliant with the HomePlug-AV standard until its firmware is upgraded from version 1.4.5 to version 2.0 or newer. As of this writing, 3.0.5 is the newest version.
Linksys ought to provide a binary image of the firmware for download on their web site, but I don't see it. The Windows GUI application that Linksys ships on CD with the PLE200--it has a mechanism for programming a new firmware image into a PLE200, but I've never used it and am not certain it is able to perform the 1.4.5-to-later upgrade even if it were given the appropriate binary image.
Being an engineer who is doing development work in the HomePlug-AV space, I have the means to do the upgrade, but it requires my using some software that is not available to the general public. To the general public who already own PLE200's, I would suggest pestering either Linksys or the chipset manufacturer about the firmware. To everyone else--maybe you can find a HomePlug-AV adapter under a different brand name that comes with firmware version 2.0 or later pre-installed.
awesome product.......2007-11-15
These powerline products are great. I had wireless throughout house and a hundred foot run of cat6 wire upstairs for streaming video. I purchased the powerline adapters and everything works perfectly now. No long runs of wires and no wireless drops. Bought two originally, now have 4 and going to order another to complete my network. Would suggest to anybody, very simple to set up. Almost virtually plug and play.

Cables worked fine and the TV images and sound are great. All is routed througha Sony ES STR-DA5200ES receiver back to the Mitsubishi 73" 1080P DLP TV.
Works excellently.......2007-12-24
Works as described. I cannot figure out why people would pay as much as $100 for a similar cable! Enjoy this item!
Working great.......2007-12-24
This product has worked wonderfully for a huge fraction of the price. This shows jus because something doesn't cost alot doesn't mean it isn't quality
hdmi cables.......2007-12-21
The cables are fine. Work as designed. However... I had to pretty much order them in the dark as they were described only as HDMI cables including the length. There are many diffrerent types of HDMI cables on the market which are designed for different technologies. It would have been very helpful to have had a item specification list for each of these cable models.Cables To Go - 40315 - 2M (6.5ft) Velocity HDMI Digital Video Cable (Blue)

Great Buy.......2007-12-20
I purchased this cable to hook my laptop up to a 26" 720p HDTV, and it serves its purpose ideally. The picture quality is pristine and works beautifully for watching standard or HD movies and can crank out 1080p as well. The price was also easy to swallow. If this cable fits your needs, buy it!
Great product, wonderful supplier.......2007-12-17
This allowed me to use my HD (1080i) TV as a pc monitor connecting to one of the HDMI ports on my TV to the pc with a dvi video card. Having a 52 inch monitor is pretty cool. The TV was not as forgiving of the video mode selected as 'normal' pc monitors, but when I finally chose a compatible mode on the PC everything worked like a breeze.
Good product, good vendor service........2007-11-16
The product works great. It was as advertised. This was my first use of Cables Unlimited as a vendor. I was very satisfied with their service.
works great, but what version?.......2007-11-09
The cable works great, and it's sooo cheap. I only wish I knew if it was hdmi v1.3.
Decent cable at a good price.......2007-11-03
Works fine between my computer and digital lcd monitor. The computer has hdmi and the monitor had dvi-d.
