After 5 hours of research and 29 hours of testing with 12 different kits, we found that the best powerline networking adapter for most people is the ZyXEL 1200 Mbps Powerline AV1200 Gigabit Adapter. A powerline networking adapter transmits an Internet signal over your home’s electrical wiring, so it is a good way to provide Internet access to a distant part of your house without running additional cables or using a Wi-Fi extender. The ZyXEL model offered the best combination of price, performance, and power efficiency out of all the adapters we tested. Its speed is matched only by adapters costing significantly more, it’s easy to set up, and it’s the only model we tested that includes a browser-based management interface.
