I have a shop on the back of my property that i want to run network to. Its about 75ft away from the house, i have some NETIS powerline units that i purchased, and they work in the house, when i plug one in the shop, it tries to work, i can ping at 2000mbps, so it doesn't quite work. Any idea if these would work better? my experience with NETIS units have been lackluster (usb wifi dongles work for 15-20 feet where TP-link/netgears work for 50-60. so are the netgear powerline units any better transmission distance then netis?

Accepted Answer

The Netgear PL1010 kit has been selling for only $40 and are worth a try.  If everything has a common ground, than a newer MIMO router would also be worth a try.   You haven't mentioned what model your units are using, but their newest units are at the AV600 standard.
