85Mbps Powerline Ethernet x2

http://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Peripherals/Network+Products/Power+Line+Ethernet/85Mbps+Powerline+Ethernet+x2?productId=27296

Do these plugs come with 56-Bit DES Encryption for network privacy and security like other branded homeplugs ?

And do they come with Ethernet cables ?


Thanks

ive got generic 14mbps to pipe the net from a modem router to my main switch. works like a dream and saves an age in cabling. If its anything other than piping internet round the 85mbps will be a god send.

Do the HomePlugs come with Vista drivers ?

shouldnt need drivers as they work as if it's connected via cable anyway.

eg rj45 to modem/router. just saves a long cable between floors and rooms.

Im intrested in these.

Is that 85mbps constant or depending on a number of factors?

Ive found some that do 200Mbps:mrgreen:

Constant, same as if you have a cable going between router and pc. then it show as 100mb these are the same thing just shows as the connection is 85mb.

The 85mbps is in ideal circumstances. It's affected by things such as anything on the mains rings which sucks a whole load of power (heaters, hairdryers, microwaves, ovens). Also things like multi-socket adapters will lower the line speed. I have two and each are plugged into a multi-socket adapter and I get around 60-75 so still pretty good. Overall I think they're great but if had get time I'd still nail some CAT5 to the wall.
