Powerline Utility - what do these numbers mean?
What do the RX:125 and Tx:125 mean? Are they the speeds the device is seeing? I have 100 coming into the house and my PC connected to the XAV2101 and speedtest shows only 30 or so. What's goi...
yes it would be compatible. Problem with powerline is though it operates and the lowest devices speeds. so it'd slow the whole powerline network down to the 200mbps speeds/specs.
sorry.
Are you needing more than 30mbps? That's enough to stream 4K and because its powerline, it tends to be a stable 30mbps.
If you're transferring a lot of data, there might be better options like a moca adapter (ethernet over coax). It has the potential for significantly more speed.
Thanks again. If I upgraded to the 1000, would my XAV2101 rated at 200 be compatible downstream?

Sorry for butting in:
Whats this utility? Is it usable for Powerline devices without WiFi? Like the PLP2000?
One thing I don't like about PLP2000 is that there is no way to connect to it to see/set its parameters.
