  • Plug and play, Twocolor throughput indicator with exact speed reference, Advanced configuration utility available, MIMO
  • Configuration utility not included in box
  • Linksys' PLEK-500 Powerline Adapter Kit is easy to configure by itself, but it's nice to have an advanced configuration utility in case you need to make some advanced changes. Also, I like the two-color throughput indicator that reveals when performance...

  • 5-foot Ethernet cables in the box
  • Three-prong plugs, even though these aren't MIMO devices, Chunky form factor
  • It's unclear why these Linksys adapters need a ground plug, since they don't support MIMO over power-line. And their chunky form factor makes it difficult to make use of the second wall outlet....

  • Build Quality, Size, Very Good Performance, 500Mbit/s Compatible, AES 128bit Encryption,  ,
  • Price (For Some), Single LAN Port (For Some), No Electrical Socket (For Some),
  • We've been testing products by Linksys for quite a few years now and never have they let us down so when we saw that their flagship powerline adapter PLE500 only had a single LAN port and no electrical socket all our hopes fell on its performance levels a...

  • The easy-to-use Linksys PLEK500 powerline kit supports the new HomePlug AV2 powerline standard and offers sustained speeds three times that of a regular Ethernet connection. It's backward compatible with existing powerline adapters
  • The Linksys PLEK500 caps at just 500Mbps, well below what HomePlug AV2 has to offer, it's relatively expensive, and it doesn't have a pass-through power socket
  • With stellar performance and support for the new HomePlug AV2 standard, the PLEK500 is an easy recommendation.

  • Cheap, Easy to set up, Very good speeds
  • No extra features, No WiFi, Not as fast as it could be, Wasted potential of the AV2 technology
  • For a simple and easy-to-use way of getting a powerline network running in your house, the Linksys Powerline HomePlug AV2 Kit PLEK500 is a fine choice. Though speeds weren't the fastest, there is plenty of bandwidth for streaming films and accessing the ...

  • Abstract:  Last year, we already wrote an article on the new HomePlug AV2 standard for power-line adapters. At this point we have tested enough of them for a modest round-up, which offered some interesting results. Recent developments in the field of power-line ...
