As far as I’m concerned, a blunder in user-friendliness.Īnyway, in the end it is the results that count. Difficult if your photo camera is also your phone that you want to connect. So you have to take a picture of the back and then set it. Also, no paper is included with the code. So if you plugged it in, there is no way to see this code. Someone at Devolo has been stupid to put the WiFi key on the back of the device. Then set up wifi on your device and … then you have a problem. Then put the two satellites somewhere in a wall socket and you’re done. The connection itself is simple: plug the main device into the wall socket and connect it to your router with a network cable. The two are a bit thicker than their leader, but the latter is a bit longer. The box contains three devices: the main unit, which you connect to your router and two satellite points. Given the Wifi 802.11n certification, that would mean up to 300Mbit wireless. As the name says, the devices promise to handle 500Mbit. In theory a perfect combination, now still in practice. This not only has the possibility to expand your network wired, but also provides extra WiFi access points where you want them. Power cables run in every home, why not use them for a network connection. The people at Devolo have a better solution. Then you have the limited scope, so you have to place repeaters to have your entire house covered. Speaking of that bandwidth: Despite the big promises made by network equipment manufacturers, it still isn’t great. For example, it is a shared medium, so you have to share your bandwidth with all connected devices. However, this technique also has drawbacks. So it is not common to have network cables in your house, so that you have a good connection everywhere.įortunately, wifi has been invented: you can use the internet throughout the house without many problems. In my case, there were not even computers yet: in 1933, not even a central heating was installed. Most people live in a house that was not yet built when the Internet came.
