"Works good - as long as nothing else in same socket"
Pros: Convenience of ethernet over powerline
Cons: Things like timers, heaters, christmas lights that are plugged in the same socket mess up transmission.
Summary: It works great until I plug in a heater in the same socket, or christmas lights, or indoor outdoor timer. Then communications is poor to non-existent.
I have other things plugged in other sockets and as far as I can tell it doesn't bother it. However, little things plugged into the same shared outlet pair mess it up. The price is right so if you can get it where you can return it, I'd give it a try.
