like ... what

on a different topic

I bought my fourth 2139U3 from ORICO three days ago, I think I bought too many.

anyone know a chink powerline?

or a good western one? the one that I got with isp is quite shit

dont

I have a friend that uses Powerline

He got a Powerline from a Western brand and it was crap, they lied about specs too.

the thing is I have basically no other option

It was Devolo, so there you got my warning.

pulling cable through the walls might be expensive idk

I think his other ones worked great, he bought them as an upgrade but the internet kept disconnecting all the time using Devolo.

Dont remember what his main was, he had to switch back to the old ones and wasted his money since no return window.

They worked great for the return window though...

Local powerlines tend to be cheaper

Especially used

Well 5 GHz doesnt handle walls any well, I got two Xiaomi 5 GHz routers and they are doing well here.

I got one for a friend and he kept complaining that he got low ping in his shitty vidya games, when I came in I noticed why, idiot had put speakers and his PC next to it so you could even hear the signal distortion from the speakers

"the router is crap"

would be careful about used powerline though @spaqin but definitely get a brand one

they are expensive af

might ask electrician friend to come around and guess how much it's going to cost to get the cable from top floor to basement

also be careful, get return window, it may be they dont work with your specific electrical wiring

thing about wiring Ethernet is that its much cheaper to do a lot at once, thats why they wire up the whole place, but if you for example wire yourself it can be much cheaper.

this house is ancient so idk about the wiring here

I think old wiring can cause issues

It is because the state of your wires will probably be corroded, old, with poor ground. Fuses that have seen better days, circuits that are round and not the new switch ones, you know those that heat up and "pop" I'm also poorfag so I know all about this, I dont have ground for shit in the power sockets in most my house even if we 2018.

probably got no overvoltage protection, guess everything will be on fire when a lightening strike hits

At this point I would just try some powerline and see if it works, if not dont bother, it can be that you are lucky.

powerline works fine it's just that they're slow

only getting a fraction of the internet speed I'm getting if I were to use a cable

you cant expect your power cables to be as good as a Cat5.E or above Ethernet cable with shielding and 1 Gbps throughput *minimum.

they will be shit

Virgin high frequency modulation vs Chad 8 crossed wires with optional shielding

@Dietrich yeah don't buy that phone from gearbest
