Devolo dLAN 200 AVmini (IEEE 1901/ HPlug AV) Ethernet

So simple
I needed to replace a DLan AVEasy that my decorators wrapped up and overheated, so I bought the new AVMini, the main body of which is about half as thick as the old AVEasy.
Just like the AVEasy, I cannot fault the product - just plug in your ethernet cable, plug into the mains and your ready to rock!
If you buy two (or more) to start connecting, then it's an absolute doddle, they're just so simple to "install".
I phoned Devolo sales to check compatibility and they were very efficient and helpful.
I've got two computers and three DLan 200's (2xAVEasy and 1xAVMini) and they work a treat.
Bought to extend a current network and did the trick
Easily slotted into the current installation of the Devolo wireless starter pack. Just a quick cycle of power once I had set it all up and hey presto, a headache I had been having on getting the internet to my son's bedroom removed.

As an additional aspect I have also tested the network through my 100m (300ft) of extension leads and had a good connection even with an RCD. That's going to be great for surfing from the hammock at the bottom of the garden in the summer!
Brilliant Networking product
What a fantastic piece of kit!

I have had an extension added to the house. The Virgin Media cable internet is in the extension. Connected that to this plug and placed the other plug upstairs in the far bedroom. I thought that it may not work very well as the extension electrics was an addition to the existing ringmain. Upon connecting the computer upstairs I performed a speedtest. Fast ping and full speed internet (10MBs) upstairs.

I then bought another single plug. I used this via an extension multisocket but only got a speed of one tenth (1MBs). Connected directly to the wall and got the full 10MBs.

No software required at all. Works straight out of the box. Brilliant!!

As long as you use the main wall sockets then there is no loss of signal.

I am so impressed that I am going to buy the USB socket so that I can use just the one printer from anywhere in the house (without having to faff about with wireless networks and their...
