Does anyone have any experience with this product?

Code: 
http://www.amazon.com/Tenda-P200-Powerline-Adapter-200Mbps/dp/B00AW1OEVI

My Mag254 box and the wifi/router are in a different part of the house. Next to impossible to wire in Ethernet or to relocate the TV or wifi/router, so I was looking into an easy solution.

Is this something that's doable, or is this just waste of my time/money?

I have used the power line adapters with the avov and they work great. Just remember not to plug them into a power bar, plug them directly into the wall outlet

I had the actiontec brand and they worked great for exactly one year and about 10 days. I had no issues streaming anything kodi related. Unfortunately for me, manufacturer's warranty expires in 1 yr so I was SOL.
Thankfully I was able to hardwire.

I use these ones. They work excellent. Price is great as well.

That's a wireless extender not a powerline extender

They work. I have 4 of those.
On the bottom there is where you plug in the ethernet cord then to the box.
You can use them as a powerline.
AP or repeater and you can also use it as a router.I use them for Dreamlink T5 and 3 mag 254 and a sonicview HD.

Can anybody recommend a good power line adapter for IPTV boxes. The old style 85 mbs are not good enough. Too much freezing. Do I need to go higher than the 200 mbs.

There are several powerline adapters that are not wifi, try Amazon and read the ratings or just do a google search for powerline ethernet adapter reviews. Netgear is not one I would recommend but HomePlug and others work very well. Since these powerline adapters use ethernet patch cords to connect your devices, not wifi, 200 mbs would be better than the wifi due to the fact they use your AC house wiring and hardwire ethernet patch cords. I believe there are several 500 mb adapters if you want to minimize future hardware requirements.

I was using a pair of net gear power line 500 nano and it only worked well in a room that couldn't facilitate a tv. The room with the tv had the adapter showing Amber/red which is not very fast. I have the bell home hub 2000 modem...which has 5g so I ended up using my apple airport express...works well even on the third floor...modem is in the basement.

Ok, thanks.So if I already had an old Powerline adapter which is 200Mbps and I dont use anything on my Lan other than my computer which directly goes into the adapter, then into the router.Is it worth getting a higher speed one like 1200.
