If that means Netgear PLW1000, that is not a modem, or even a router.
It is "Powerline Ethernet" that runs over the mains circuit with a wifi access point at the "remote" end.

Hi michaelkenward,
Nice to hear from you.
I am aware what this PLW1000 is.
It will at least give me some descent wifi coverage from the mid point of the house.....not from the front (which is unfortunely the locale for both the nbn modem & the r6400v2). The Netgear ac2200 (rbk30) has dropped right off the radar.
The PLW100 will be plugged into the r6400v2.
When I did hear back from yourself after reading the results of my post of 10/4 11.07pm...I had a discussion about nbn Modems with a Tech/computer company (online sales)...who suggested the PLW1000 or the billion...over the AVM Fritz!box.
regards
Lethal
