My home station is about 20 meters away from the network hub which is getting fibre at around 1gig speed.
If I use powerline connectors (both 1gig) and Cat 5e / 6 or even 7 cables - it only gives me 120mbps.
But, if I run a long Cat5e out of the window, and in the other - I get 1gig.
Obvisouly, the solution here is to stick to the cable rather than powerline. But I got the TP Link powerlines so I wouldn't have to do that (it's ugly and at the front of the house to run the cable).
Is there anything I'm missing? The Status of the adaptor shows 1gpbs when I check it - and the direct link proves what I can get - just the Powerline isn't doing what it said it would.
I figure there's nothing i can do - but just in case, I thought I'd ask.
