3 out of 5 eggsSlow. 310 or 311? What's the difference?

Pros: Easy to setup

Cons: Slow. Only 1/2 or 1/4 of the specs

Overall Review: Connected two computers with Ethernet cables on a 1gb network: file transfered around 70 megabytes per second (around 560 megbits per second). Plugged both D-Link adapters into the same plain power outlet: file transfered around 7 megabytes per second (around 56 megabits per second).

Quite a bit short of the 100 megabits or 200 megabits per second claimed in the specs. My wireless N router provides around 8 megabytes per second file transfer; as good as the D-Link adapters, but cheaper.

Is around 56 megabits per second all I should expect from the D-Link adapters?

By the way, actually purchased a pair of DHP-311AVs. Received a box that had both “DHP-311AV” and “DHP-310AV” on the outside of the box. However, both of the adapters had “DHP-310AV” (only) on them. Newegg reports that the DHP-311AV has been “discontinued”. The specs of the DHP-310AV appear to be identical to the discontinued DHP-311AV.

D-Link/Newegg, what’s up?

What's the difference between the DHP-311AV and the DHP-310AV (other than the model number)?

3 out of 5 eggsSlow, with issues but cheap

Pros: - low price
- adapters start working right out of box, plug&play

Cons: - slow bandwidth
- not working with passive powered switch (don't know, actually, why)
- sometimes these adapters hangs and you need to powercycle 'em

4 out of 5 eggsworks well

Pros: plug and play. LED lights accurately display mb rate with green, yellow, red. compact compared to other power line adapters. very affordable.

Cons: short range compared too regular bulky power line adapters. most issues I ran into we're all caused by short range so adding longer Ethernet cables and placing adapters closer fixed my connection issues.

Overall Review: if plug space is an issue I would consider this product, otherwise get bigger adapters. but works well when in range for streaming and gaming.

2 out of 5 eggsMeh...

Pros: Works great as long as you only need internet access

Cons: I tried every router/switch/powerline combo I could imagine and could never get my HTPC and Office computer to link up via homegroup, but I could see each computer on the network. I ran a cat5e cable outside my home and punched through the walls to each computer and the two linked up the instant I clicked on it...

Physical Cable Run +1
D Link Powerline 0

Overall Review: Either I'm an idiot or these are good for surfing the net from anywhere in the house, and thats it.

1 out of 5 eggsDid Not Work for Me

Pros: - Sale Price was good
- Easy to set up
- Nice utility included

Cons: I had high hopes that this product would be an improvement of my current wi fi speeds to my television. My router and the 'home' adapter are on the lower level and the big-screen smart TV on the upper level. Using Wi-Fi from my router provided adequate but not outstanding performance, so I decided to give these Ethernet adapters a try. Installation was simple and the included utility was helpful. Unfortunately performance was much inferior, even when I tried numerous electrical outlets.
