"Fast, Reliable, Constant Connection. GOODBYE WIRELESS!"
Pros: Simple, easy to use, fast, always on
Cons: Need a open plug!
Summary: As an addict of everything electronics, I decided to purchase a pair of these to give it a try. Wow, was it a good idea! I have had pre-N wireless stuff throughout my home in Chicago (condo). I have a media center in my bedroom, living room and computer in den with NAS for videos/photos/music/games etc. With the belkin pre-n, the wirless was okay, often it would get bogged down, freeze, choppy etc. I thought that was the best once can get with networking. Then today, magic happened. I got these, and although a little pricey are soooo much better then wireless! I just plugged them in! I was getting so much faster transfers/downloads etc. I dont have anything to measure the speeds, but it was constant! There was no interruptions! This is the best idea, and such a stable item to use! I love it! I will keep you posted with other updates, as I will be getting more adapters around my house! I only rate good stuff good, otherwise the crap goes back to the store. This is a keeper for me!
lates!

First off, I'm not tech savvy (at all), so bear with me.
I'm looking to purchase the Netgear Ethernet Adapter (XE 103) and was wondering . . .
1) what retailers sell this (i've shopped six and none have had it)
2) will i need to buy two of them, or do they come packaged with two adapters (i know you need to in order to get the connectivity from your router to your other pc (that reads off that router)
3) i have a belkin router (11 Mbps). I'm guessing the Netgear adapter is compatible. Someone told me that the lack of speed and inconsistency that gets in the way of me being able to access the Internet from my other PC (the one reading off of the Belkin router), might be do to the router and that the adapters might not help.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
