All right, so...
I recently installed a ZyXEL powerline Ethernet adapter, and it does connect. However, there is a HUGE speed issue with it.
In the room with the router, with a plug close to the router and transmitting adapter, the receiving adapter lets me download on Steam at about 3.0 - 3.5 mb/s. I consider that to be good, since it did not fluctuate like my wifi.
However, in my room, which is JUST ACROSS THE HALLWAY, my Steam download speeds average 1.3 mb/s. The plug I tested in the router room and the plug I use in my room are about 1.5 meters away!
My guess is that the wiring does not directly connect the two rooms at a nearby point. However, if you can think of a way to fix this, it would help me greatly.
Thanks!
