PowerNet: Ethernet Anywhere What is PowerNet? PowerNet is Monster’s innovation in powerline networking technology. Part network adapter, part line conditioner, PowerNet lets network traffic and internet flow through the standard electrical outlets in your home. PowerNet 100 PowerNet 200 PowerNet 300 Ethernet ports 1 1 3 (4 total) Transfer Rate Up to 200 Mbps Up to 200 Mbps Up to 200 Mbps AC Outlets 2 2 Grounded Plug Clean Power Surge Protection Removeable Cord      Rotating Plug Use for Websurfing, email, and other light tasks Streaming video or playing games with a single device Connecting multiple internet components The Connected Home Today's home is full of devices that require connection to the internet and to each other, going beyond the capabilities of devices such as AV recievers. Even TVs have IP connections for accessing content stored on a local home network and the internet. Not all devices have built-in Wi-Fi, and even those that do have limited performance to access HD content or play online games. The Problem with Wi-Fi While Wi-Fi may be acceptable for email and browsing, it lacks the speed and consistency to move large amounts of data used by HD content and games. Even with the latest version of Wi-Fi available (802.11n) the data can be limited by walls and floors in your home, and can be interrupted by outside RF interference from other devices in the home. Combine that with the added complications of setting up Wi-Fi networks and and the use of it as a solution becomes less appealing. For a consistent experience there is no better  method than a wired connection to the router and internet. With a wired connection, you are guaranteed the fastest speeds without interruption by other devices or the limitations of transmitting through walls and floors. The Problem with Adding Wires to Your Home Installing wires in your home can be a messy, time-consuming, and costly experience. Unless your home is gutted, adding Ethernet wiring to your home can be a huge inconvenience to your enjoyment of your Ethernet devices. Additionally, many condo, co-op and home associations prohibit this type of installation. You want your ethernet to work immediately and function at the highest speed possible. The Solution: Monster PowerNet Every PowerNet module works on Home Plug AV Power Line Carrier (PLC) technology that utilizes the exisiting electrical wiring in your home to send and receive Ethernet signals between your devices. With speeds up to 200Mpbs, Monster PowerNet is the perfect solution to connect all of your Ethernet devices quickly, easily, and in a cost-effective manner. Anywhere there is an outlet in your home, you have an Ethernet connection. PLC does not provide the speeds of a direct connection to a router; however, Monster PowerNet performs at 200 Mbps, faster than any Wi-Fi connection. Monster PowerNet Advantage Unlike any other PLC Ethernet modules, PowerNet 200 and 300 modules provide features such as an AC plug (no loss of an outlet on your wall), and with PLC Clean Power filtering to reduce noise and interference on your electrical lines caused by appliances and other electronics. This not only improves network speed, it lets PowerNet work where other power line communication products won't. The PowerNet 300 even has 3 additional Ethernet connections allowing for 1 module to be used for multiple devices. With all these features, Monster PowerNet is the best solution available for distributing Ethernet throughout your home. How to Set it Up Setting up PowerNet is as simple as it gets. First, run a standard Ethernet cable from your router to one of the PowerNet modules. Next, plug the PowerNet module into a nearby electrical outlet. Repeat these steps for the device you want to get a network connection to and you should be in business. No passwords. No confusing set up. NOTE: If your PowerNet module is not providing a connection, make sure that 1) the two outlets are on the same circuit breaker (not a problem in most homes) and 2) that you have turned your router off and back on.

Any comments on the good prices are now obsolete. I think the good price was just a mistake and my good fortune at the time. If you see it for $ 45.59, which is purchased, it is a large, upward pressure. But with the current price of $ 199.99, I have to remove some of my stars. You would be better to buy a model that costs about $ 100. Since this product is approximately half the price of other Ethernet adapters that have fewer resources, not sure what to expect from this product. However, had the name of Monster (again, it seems very strange that the monsters that the most expensive brand category), so I thought I'd give it a try. So far, so good. Although I think the design is ugly, not most of the time, even going to see these, who cares. The important thing is that it works and works well! It is really a kit from start-up not only with both devices, but two Ethernet cables to connect the cables that come with them are a bit "short, but you can buy them for something like a power anyway , so again, no big deal. Insert a device into an electrical outlet near your router, the Ethernet cable to connect the unit, then take the other and end near the X-box 360 or Blu-ray (these the two units I tested at home) and you're done. The lights begin to flash and sync without additional effort on your part. Another positive aspect is the plug does not have the annoying one more branch on the ground so you can plug them in upside down if space is tight on your wall outlet. While I was playing video games over the connection, I have not noticed any slowdown or drop out. I've only had it about a month, but since I was considering spending double the money, I am very pleased I found this device for this price It is cheaper than the X-box 360's own wireless adapter and you can use it on any device you choose. And unlike most wireless adapters, which sell for less, you don't have to worry if the device you want to hook up doesn't have Windows on it. There's no need for it with the powerline adapter. Delivers on what it promises with ease and speed. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. PowerNet 100 ****AWESOME!!!**** By Chevydan17 This product is amazing!! I just plugged it in and changed the settings on my tv and blu-ray player to wired, and it was good to go. The speed is a lot better than wireless. I was having to wait a long time for videos from Hulu to load and that was at SD quality. Now they load almost instantly at HD quality! I would recommend this to anyone trying to get a reliable high speed connection to their AV components. The price at Amazon was more than $ 30,000 less than in the store! Great (I have two sets) product. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Great for almost 4 weeks from Tim Gee Powernet The Monster 200 was mentioned by Glenn Reynolds at Instapundit. Confronted with problematic Wi-Fi coverage to the top where we keep the X-Box, I got the Powernet 100 (not necessarily the surge protector, saved a few dollars). The two units were plugged in to (the right lighting lights) are synchronized, then I plugged in the first unit with the cable router and the second unit up to the X-Box, and BAM it worked. Quite a treat after the 3 or 4 hours I spent with my messed expand airports and try to optimize the wireless network. So everything worked great until this afternoon, when the X-box said it was no longer connected to the network. A trip to the Monster site was the disappointment, it was frustrating. There are no forums, no FAQ PowerNet product line, and it's easy to find under the support section of the documentation I had to go to Google to find a PDF of the instructions --.
