In today’s world, it is almost becoming a requirement to have a networked home. More and more appliances, televisions, gaming consoles, cable and satellite boxes, and even thermostats are requiring access to your home network. And while many of these items can currently use your wireless network, not all can. So what’s a home owner to do for the items that need a faster and more reliable Ethernet connection but don’t have the home wired for it? My suggestion, buy a D-Link PowerLine HD Network Starter Kit.
According to D-Link’s website:
The D-Link® PowerLine HD Ethernet Adapter (DHP-302) and Starter Kit (DHP-303) take advantage of your home’s existing electrical wiring to create or extend a network. Turn every power outlet into a possible network connection to connect computers, digital media players, and game consoles throughout your home.
This sounds like a great and affordable ($139) solution for any home. No doubt that this is much cheaper than trying to run CAT5 cable all throughout your house. And if you are worried about speed, the website lists the speed at up to 200Mbps which is much faster than any cable or DSL service I know of.
So if you’re in need of a home network solution, save yourself the hassle and the expense of wiring your own home and instead check out D-Link’s Powerline HD Network Starter kit.
