00:00:07.720 --> 00:00:15.160
slick and iron agreement on this this is magical this is like more magical than

00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:16.720
the iPad which the late Steve Jobs

00:00:15.160 --> 00:00:23.680
declared to be magical therefore it is magical this is magical this is a

00:00:20.680 --> 00:00:25.560
powerline AV wireless network extender

00:00:23.680 --> 00:00:30.599
an existing inhome powerline network is required for use okay understood the

00:00:28.240 --> 00:00:34.719
plw400 what does it do it easily extends your

00:00:32.520 --> 00:00:39.879
wired and wireless network coverage in your home yes your wired and wireless

00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:45.360
network coverage in your home you know I'm going to go find that okay so if you

00:00:43.440 --> 00:00:49.079
already have one of these where you got like you know your power line like

00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:53.239
somewhere you know this is where where your router is in your modem this is in

00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:56.600
like Johnny's room to power his computer because you know the walls are made of

00:00:54.520 --> 00:01:00.559
lead or the paint is lead or you know you know you really shouldn't use lead

00:00:57.840 --> 00:01:05.000
paint your kids will be like damaged by that okay so Johnny's room is painted

00:01:02.920 --> 00:01:08.640
with lead and wireless doesn't work so we have power line running to there so

00:01:06.640 --> 00:01:11.640
we buy this third adapter which just automatically like syns up with the

00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:16.400
other guys you might have to press the sync button whatever no big deal what

00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:22.479
this does maybe we take this down to like the media room in the basement okay

00:01:18.799 --> 00:01:24.640
so you use the network Jack here to plug

00:01:22.479 --> 00:01:27.600
into okay we'll let we'll just start this looks like trying to look closely

00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:33.840
at the tiny picture on the box it's like why are we doing this we're just going to open it anyway there we go there we

00:01:31.600 --> 00:01:38.920
go so we use the Ethernet port on the bottom to run to like a switch which

00:01:35.840 --> 00:01:40.720
powers like the the media PC and the TV

00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:45.479
with Ethernet and all the gadgets that I'm sure you can all you know have and

00:01:43.799 --> 00:01:49.680
in your media room that everyone has a media room I don't have a medor room but

00:01:50.360 --> 00:01:55.439
um right so that goes there and then because it's in the basement it's far

00:01:54.079 --> 00:01:59.960
away and you use lead paint in your house or for whatever reason you don't

00:01:57.159 --> 00:02:04.680
have good Wireless reception it also extends your wireless network so it's a

00:02:02.479 --> 00:02:09.039
range extender that doesn't have your bandwidth because it's using half of its

00:02:07.039 --> 00:02:13.920
signal to send and half of it signal to receive and it's like bridging these two

00:02:10.840 --> 00:02:16.280
zones this is a range extender that has

00:02:13.920 --> 00:02:19.959
wired essentially as the backbone and then it just has a wireless like it

00:02:18.160 --> 00:02:24.440
creates a little like Wireless extension Hotpot wherever it happens to be so this

00:02:22.599 --> 00:02:29.640
is the most magical thing ever because now instead of going you know trying to

00:02:27.200 --> 00:02:33.720
boost the signal to your antenna or like Buy a wireless extender you just throw

00:02:31.760 --> 00:02:38.319
these all over your house and you'll have like just the most Beast possible

00:02:36.440 --> 00:02:43.200
wireless coverage throughout your entire house just by using little guys like

00:02:40.720 --> 00:02:49.319
this and because Wireless bandwidth is so inconsequential even though these are

00:02:46.239 --> 00:02:51.040
only 200 megabit per second that wired

00:02:49.319 --> 00:02:54.319
connection it's still more than enough for anything you would do wirelessly on

00:02:52.560 --> 00:02:58.280
something like a tablet or a phone or whatever else the case may be we have an

00:02:56.080 --> 00:03:03.319
Ethernet cable that is included we have a setup to CD which you should no I

00:03:01.959 --> 00:03:06.400
don't know go ahead and use it actually Link's stuff is pretty good like it

00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:10.920
doesn't waste a lot of your time and it's pretty straightforward okay package

00:03:08.720 --> 00:03:15.159
contents wire transfer speeds up to 200 it's 2.4 GHz so it's not dual band or

00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:18.400
anything fancy like that but it gives you extended home coverage and it has a

00:03:16.720 --> 00:03:23.360
1000 Ethernet port which is all it really

00:03:20.480 --> 00:03:26.959
needs supports WPS I think that's pretty much it so if

00:03:25.480 --> 00:03:31.920
you guys don't understand yet how magical this is like like Post in the

00:03:29.879 --> 00:03:36.519
comments and let either me or one of the other users to uh like help you

00:03:35.040 --> 00:03:40.239
understand that it's magical because it really is there's a reset switch here

00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:45.760
protection button WPS all your indicator LEDs onoff switch

00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:48.400
and your Ethernet port and the plug that goes into the wall thank you for
