I need only the receiver?Most new customers find having the WiFi adapter extender and the Powerline in the same package better, as it means the customer don't need to mess around buying two different products. To my knowledge Netgear sadly doesn't have just a Powerline WiFi adapter available to buy anywhere. If you are able to buy a XWM5001 somewhere, it will work with your Homeplug AV devices. I hope this helps a little more.
