Hello guys.
I have a spare Jynx with out wifi wireless. I am currently using Netgear Powerline adapter for my T5. My question is which one suit most and affordable by choosing the Wifi or powerline adapter for the Jynx. and what is the good brand if I go with powerline adapter. Any suggestion. I search on Amazon and most of them sold in pair. Do I need to hook one of them to the router and the other to the Jynx.
Thanks guys

Looks like a copy and paste post from another site. He ask and then leaves before getting any advice.

I use netgear adapters with all my receivers. You need one directly into your router which will give you internet access with all electrical outlets and another adapter so a pair would be required.

Yes I did so I can get a quick response because I have a T5 so I thought I post in the right section, Is it wrong doing that and did I post in the wrong section if so advice me to the right section. Thanks for the response. Do I have to use the same brand or I can use different brand. Yes right now I have a pair of Netgear for my T5.
Thanks again.

The brand doesn't matter but I've been using adapters for the better part of 5 years now and netgear seem to be the best.

Dont forget the power Line adapater needs to be plugged in to a wall outlet ..NOT a power bar or strip

so 1 adapter connected to router will work several adapters hooked up to several boxes?

As long as your main is hooked up directly to your router you hook up as many as you like. As previously posted, they will work if plugged into a power bar but not as well as if plugged directly into an electrical socket.

i guess it depends on the brand, i use netgear and you can have upto 16 powerline adapters connected to one from the main router and also find they work great directly plugged into an electrical socket but not if plugged into a powerbar that has a surge protector, they also work if plugged into a regular extension cord
