Homeplug networking and superhub?

Anyone using homeplug networking with a superhub?
I'm looking for a more stale PS3 connection when my superhub comes and was thinking of trying these-any recommendations??

Thanks

I have not used it with the super hub however I have installed many networks using Ethernet over mains technology with great success in situation where wireless signals did not achieve desired results

Re: Homeplug networking and superhub?

I use Devolvo Home Plugs. The speed via the Home Plug is much slower then connecting directly. I actually get a faster speed on the wireless than the Homeplug!

Re: Homeplug networking and superhub?

Most of the homeplug 200's are fine providing they don't have to go through a surge protector at any stage as this will either kill the connection completely or drastically reduce the throughput speed.

Re: Homeplug networking and superhub?

thats a good point, most have a pass through, so should always be first against the wall socket.

Re: Homeplug networking and superhub?

My Solwise 85Mbs homeplugs, installed in a ten year old house, one upstairs one down, both directly plugged in reduced my BW from 20 to 3 tops. Didn't work out why as VM decided to move the modem for me (and flood my office at the same time .

Just tried them downstairs with the superhub and they seem to work a treat. Based on 10 minutes of testing,

Re: Homeplug networking and superhub?

Hmm interesting, wonder what that translates to in real word speeds.

It's all a far far cry when I was using 2x serial cables to connect 2 PC's together in the 90's LOL

That used to be the case, the newer ones are happy as long as it is via the same fusebox.
