Very low data transfer rates on power lines.
Very low data transfer rates on power lines.
Previously, I purchased a powerline adapter that provided about 60 Mb/s, which is still less than the rate we pay for. Even a basic laptop from 2009 can reach 120 Mb/s, yet this performance doesn't match. Eventually, my connection dropped unexpectedly, and my ping reached hundreds. I rarely achieve more than 5+ Mb/s over powerline. When using my WiFi adapter—which is also of poor quality—I sometimes get around 50 Mb/s, but it quickly drops to about 8 Mb/s. Anyone have any long-term fixes or suggestions? I’m considering temporary options or explanations for why my powerline adapter seems to fail. I’ve restarted my computer and reset it several times.
Find a good PCIe Wi-Fi adapter and perhaps a fresh access point. Edited March 31, 2018 by GDRRiley
It's odd how they can produce Ethernet cables of any size you desire.
The router is in the pantry so unless we made a hole in the wall (We cant) thered be no way to put it.
Use a long cable in a flat white style, tracing its path along the wall edges and door frames.
