Powerline Ethernet Adaptors
12 Answers
I run a couple of these which works well for my xbox downstairs.
I got hold of a cheap xbox for Booldawg jnr and bought another adaptor off amazon so she could game online.
This new adaptor doesnt work with my existing adaptors. The only issue I can see is that my old adaptors are 85mbps and this new one is 200mpbs.
I have the original 85mpbs unit plugged into the router and ran my xbox off an identical adaptor - which works. Do these apadtor only work with identical models/speed? I thought the 200mpbs would just run at whatever speed it was given from the router.

Are they from the same manufacturer? Different brands use different technologies and frequently aren't compatible with each other:

I'm guessing that the devices might have different passwords. Have you tried installing, and using the Management Utility?

If you're still stuck, try asking the manufacturer:

They generally work on a peer-to-peer principle i.e they only talk to one other device. You would therefore need 2 new adaptors to set up a new connection to an additional device. One connected to a spare port on your router and the other to the end device. Think of it as a network cable connection but with these adaptors in the way.
Home Plugs, 85MBps won't 'talk' to 200Mbps. i.e. not compatible.
