As long as your wiring is ok, they will easily handle 40Mb/s

I actually have my ADSL router plugged into master socket in the hall.
I then use a powerline thingy to send it up to my living room, where it plugs into all my gadgets and a TPLink WAP thingy does all the Wifi.
In my wife's office I also have another powerline thingy so she doesn't suffer dropouts. I suspect the powerline thingies will be better for a PS4 connection - better than wireless I would think in terms of latency and speed.
That what I've been hearing, that wireless isn't any good for gaming, as it can't send enough packets so people try modifying their mtu to compensate.
Ordered a couple of the bt powerline adaptors so let's see how they work. Not bad at £30 for the pair.
Went and got some tp link powerline adaptors. Plugged them in, turned my ps4 on and did a speed test....6mbps....woop! Now to find out where the other 36 have gone....
What's reporting this 6 - is it the playstation giving you the connection speed? That seems pretty random only being 6 down a wire!
Yeah it's the network speed test on the ps4 which seems fairly reliable.
Got a laptop you can try in the same homeplug adapter just to check?
Try again but this time plug the two ends into the same ring main, could be getting the hump if it has to pass between them.Originally Posted by Zornyan
How do I know which ring it's on?
Rings are usually split between floors, so ground floor has one breaker and the 1st another ect..
If in doubt power them off at the breaker box and see.
Sometimes these things have trouble crossing phases or even rings across rcd's - they can also technically "leak" out to other people on the power grid (prob only a concern in a block of flats or something as it gets pretty week eventually)
Going to buy some more cables and trying using some different sockets tomorrow..Nothing is ever easy eh?
Spent £25 on some cat6 ethernet cables to connect the powerline to hub and powerline to ps4, changed the plugs to put them on the same ring, checked appliances were all off.
Tested at 15mbs, then 8, then 12, now sitting around 8 permanently, starting to give up nowx, I'm nearly £80 down, 15 quid a month more to go from 5 to 8mbs...
Jesus did that shit come with a soapy tit-**** or something
What speed do you get when you connect the laptop to the router using 1 piece of cat6 cable????
****! Wish I had 8.
A solid 38mbs rk, PlayStation says the same thing.
Yeah it was overpriced, but I needed it today, and maplins is the only place in town that sets such iTunes.
Hell I wanted a new hdmi lead as my current one is a bit dodgy, cheapest one they had was £48
lol thats mental, was it over-braided with midgets pubic hair or something
