Looks like this price is only for one device---and yes, you do need two of them. I think they work on any computer.... I went to eBay and got a set of two plug links at a great price. (sorry Amazon)

One end of the ethernet cable plugs into the bottom of the PlugLink the other goes to either your router or the device you wish to connect. It takes two Asoka devices to make this work. One should be in the area of your router and the other can be in any room in your house that needs the connection to a device. Sometimes wi-fi is not strong enough but your electrical system makes for good network cabling.

It has 1 Ethernet port, 1Cable port, and the power port, but not the general telephone jack/port. This is for people who have internet service through a cable company, not DSL.

There is only one adapter per order. I had others provided by ATT Uverse and got a third so I could access internet within an older home which would not transmit a signal through the lath and plaster walls. It works very well but you need to get the access code from Uverse to make it work.

Its listed in the sales info. IIRC I got a ethernet cable and a power cable. Some brochures.

The Actiontec 500 Mbps is not a wireless extender by it self. However since you plugged one end of the Ethernet cable into the larger adapter you can plug the other end of the same Ethernet cable into a different wireless router (instead of the Ethernet port of a network device such as a PC or a ROKU) if you want to improve your WiFi performance. Like I stated I found the hard wired solution much superior than any improved WiFi solution can provide, unless you have more than four devices spread across in multiple rooms that Ethernet cable can not easily reach.

Great question. The picture shows two but nowhere does it say. If you go to the Linksys product page (http://www.linksys.com/en-eu/products/powerline/plek500), the picture shows one but the description says two. Oy vey.Should be two, based on the description on the linksys page.

No. Powerline adapters are for wired access. What will help is a wireless extender. A variety is available on Amazon.

Thanks, Bernie. I did buy the adapter and it worked fine while I was here. Of course, when I was out there in Tokyo, the hotel room's Ethernet cable wasn't working so I still had to use the 2nd floor Guest Lounge Wifi, LOL! >_<

According to Dish data,(tech.dishnetwork.com and serch for "home networking") only one HomePlug-to-Ethernet adapter is needed. The router is connected to the home plug and the ViP722 power cord is directly pluged into the AC plug. See reference above for more descriptive info.

I have Time Warner Cable Extreme (30 Mbps down / 5 Mbps up) and 3 TL-PA511 adapters (2 upstairs and 1 downstairs). The modem is downstairs in the office (OFFICE) by the first adapter. The second adapter is in the master bedroom (ROOM 1) and third in my brothers room (ROOM 2). I ran a few test to help answer your question. Test 1 (speakeasy.net) OFFICE: 33 Mbps / 5 Mbps ROOM 1: 16 Mbps / 5 Mbps (through powerline adapter) ROOM 2: 24 Mbps / 5 Mbps (through powerline adapter) Test 2 (speakeasy.net) OFFICE: 33 Mbps / 5 Mbps ROOM 1: 16 Mbps / 5 Mbps (through powerline adapter) ROOM 2: 25 Mbps / 5 Mbps (through powerline adapter) Test 3 (speakeasy.net) OFFICE: 33 Mbps / 5 Mbps ROOM 1: 17 Mbps / 5 Mbps (through powerline adapter) ROOM 2: 28 Mbps / 5 Mbps (through powerline adapter) Test 4 (speakeasy.net) OFFICE: 33 Mbps / 5 Mbps ROOM 1: 16 Mbps / 5 Mbps (through powerline adapter) ROOM 2: 20 Mbps / 5 Mbps (through powerline adapter) Test 5 (TWC Speed Test) OFFICE: 33 Mbps / 5 Mbps ROOM 1: 18 Mbps / 5 Mbps (through powerline adapter) ROOM 2: 28 Mbps / 5 Mbps (through powerline adapter) Test 6 (TWC Speed Test) OFFICE: 33 Mbps / 5 Mbps ROOM 1: 21 Mbps / 5 Mbps (through powerline adapter) ROOM 2: 23 Mbps / 5 Mbps (through powerline adapter) I also recorded a few rates reported by the TP-Link Utility. I was running the utility on my laptop in the office, so it reported the rates to ROOM 1 and ROOM 2. Recorded Rate #1 (TP-Link Utility) ROOM 1: 39 Mbps ROOM 2: 64 Mbps Recorded Rate #2 (TP-Link Utility) ROOM 1: 46 Mbps ROOM 2: 68 Mbps Recorded Rate #3 (TP-Link Utility) ROOM 1: 52 Mbps ROOM 2: 70 Mbps Recorded Rate #4 (TP-Link Utility) ROOM 1: 54 Mbps ROOM 2: 71 Mbps

The kit came with both, they worked great too! I had my office and living room hard wired with cat6 and used this to run a second network on the same line.

Depends on the speed of the Actiontec Powerline system. This is homeplug AV, if your Actiontec is 85 mb or slower it is Homeplug 1.0. HOmeplug 1.0 and homeplug AV are not very compatible though it MAY work, but it will be slow.

Hello Happy, Yes I have 3 sets of the powerline adapters, 2 sets like this (1ea 1 port & 1ea 4 port) and then I purchased a set of the "refurbished powerline adapters that came as 2ea 4 port adapters. All of them are functioning just fine. I have had no issues in the month or so that I have used them. Definitely faster & more stable than WiFi. I stream Videos/Game/Hulu/Netflix/Music etc.. throughout the house to multiple devices individually & simultaneously. Hope this helps. V/R Paul

Sorta. One adapter connects your modem/router to the A/C outlet. Then you plug in the second, third, fourth adapter where ever you need to in another A/C outlet. With two ethernet ports in each outlet, you can connect whatever devices you need. There is no need to "amplify" the signal, since the signal is traveling acrtoss your homes wiring, basically, a direct, ethernet connection.

Yes, the kit comes with the two unites and two cat 5 cables. The Ethernet cable is not very long. The product works great the single unit is the one you plug in to your router and the wall plug and the unit with the four Ethernet ports is plugged in by the area you want to provide Internet service. I recommend the product.

I have another computer in the living room, that has a dsl box hooked up to it, and the one in my bedroom has no dsl box, only this USB adaptor hooked to it, and I get the signals from my dsl box from it, to have internet in my bedroom. You don't have to have the ethernet cable hooked onto the one the adaptor is hooked into because of the wireless signals. I'm not all that computer savvy to explain it any other way, hope this helps.
