Description

Your router's signal travels through the walls you already have, so the far room gets wired-speed internet with no new cables. Plug one adapter by the router and another by the TV or desk, and the link forms without software. Broadcom Gigabit chips, a V0 fire-retardant housing and 0.36W standby make it a quiet fixture in the socket.

Turn existing electrical sockets into a fast Gigabit network: plug in and get internet anywhere in the home

Solves
  • Weak or dead Wi-Fi zones in distant rooms
  • Running Ethernet cables through walls
  • Slow streaming for IPTV, TV and gaming consoles
  • Energy waste from always-on network devices

Wired-speed internet in every room, without the cables

Dead Wi-Fi spots and buffering TVs are common when the router sits far away. Plug one adapter near the router and another where you need it, and your home's existing wiring carries the signal.

Gigabit chips that carry the signal

The Broadcom Gigabit powerline chip sits on a board inside the housing and turns your wiring into a data path. The AV1000 rating and HomePlug AV2 compliance tell you which standard it follows. Real speed depends on the circuit, so test the room you care about first.

Set it up in seconds

Factory-default pairing means there is no software to install and no button sequence to memorize. Plug the first adapter near the router, plug the second near the TV, and the link forms. The Ethernet port on each adapter takes a standard cable.

Built to stay plugged in

The adapter draws 0.36W in standby and under 3.2W at full load, so it can stay in the socket around the clock. The housing is V0 class fire retardant, which matters for a device that runs day and night.

Plug in, link up, and you are online

  1. 1
    Plug the first adapter by the router

    Choose a wall socket near the router and plug the adapter straight in. Skip surge protectors and power strips, which can weaken the signal.

  2. 2
    Connect the Ethernet cable

    Run an Ethernet cable from the router into the RJ45 port on the first adapter. The port clicks in with a firm fit.

  3. 3
    Plug the second adapter by the TV or desk

    Plug the second adapter into a socket on the same circuit, then connect the TV, console or desk device to its RJ45 port. Wait for the status LED to show a link.

Why the far room keeps buffering

The room with the weak signal

The match starts and the stream freezes at the exact moment it matters. The router is three rooms away, behind two walls, and the TV is the last device to get a usable signal. Every evening the same stall repeats, and the console ping jumps with it.

Why the usual fixes fall short

Mesh extenders repeat the signal wirelessly, and each hop costs throughput. Thick walls make it worse. A long Ethernet run works, but it means drilling through plaster or running cable across a hallway floor. Both options ask you to accept a compromise you did not choose.

Use the wiring you already have

The PH3 turns two ordinary sockets into a network path. One adapter sits by the router, the other by the TV or desk, and an Ethernet cable runs from each adapter to its device. Pairing comes factory set, so there is nothing to configure and no wall to open.

What to expect as you set it up

  1. First use
    Adapters link up

    Plug both adapters in and wait for the status LEDs to show a link. Pairing is factory default, so no software setup is needed.

  2. Day 1
    Test the far room

    Run a speed test from the TV or desk and compare it with a test at the router. The gap shows the real gain on your wiring.

  3. Week 1
    Streaming steadies

    Use the adapter for normal streaming and calls. Watch for fewer stalls in the room where the Wi-Fi used to drop.

  4. Day 30
    Runs in the background

    After a month the adapter should stay quiet in the socket. At 0.36W in standby, leaving it plugged in costs very little.

Questions and answers

Will it work with surge protectors or power strips?
w
Wanelo · seller

It can, but speed usually drops. Filters and extension leads weaken the powerline signal. Plug each adapter straight into a wall socket for the best result.

Does my home wiring affect the speed I get?
w
Wanelo · seller

Yes. Powerline speed depends on the wiring, the circuit and the distance between the two adapters. The rated 1000Mbps is the ceiling, so test each room and place the adapter in the socket that gives the best link.

Can I use it on a different circuit or breaker panel?
w
Wanelo · seller

Signal may not cross between circuits, so the link can fail or run slow. Use sockets on the same electrical circuit, or test a pair in the room before you commit.

Is it better than a mesh Wi-Fi extender?
w
Wanelo · seller

For a far room with thick walls, usually yes. A mesh extender repeats the signal wirelessly and loses throughput at each hop. The PH3 keeps the signal on your wiring, so the room gets a steady link without drilling. One pair replaces a long cable run for a single purchase and no installation work.

Do I need to set up or pair the adapters?
w
Wanelo · seller

No. Pairing comes factory default. Plug both adapters in, connect the Ethernet cables, and wait for the status LED to show a link.
