One of the major drawbacks in setting up home network is the absence of required wiring inside the house to interconnect networked computers. In recent years several technologies have attempted to address the issue. The most prominent technology so far is the family of WIFI (802.11 X) products. Recently, however, another technology called HomePlug has come forth. It uses electrical grids, already available inside walls to transmit data from computer to computer. HomePlug technology modulates computer data in a way to enable them use power grid as a medium of transmission from point to point. Using this technology, two computers have a virtual Ethernet connection without the need to be physically connected to each other.
The PowerLine Ethernet Adapterhas 3 indicator lights (LEDs) and an Ethernet port. The LEDs depict the connection status, as well as other information, enabling detailed diagnosis of system malfunction. The Ethernet port is to connect to a device in the home network.
