Hi All,
I'm putting together a gaming computer shortly and will be needing a way to access the internet. The router/modem thing is on the main floor of my house and the new system will be placed upstairs where I am currently typing on a laptop. Running a wifi speedtest gives me 3mbps download speed, roughly 22mbps less then what I'm paying for. I am in a predicament, I know absolutely nothing about networking, however I have looked up powerline adapters and they seem promising.
Are they good for gaming and heavy internet use?
Do I have any other options? if not what powerline adapter should I get? I live in Canada and I would like to get the most bang for my buck though I don't have a budget.
thanks
