I’ve tested the speeds going in at 1.2gigs but can only get 100-130Mbs out. I’ve tried the factory reset but didn’t work if anyone has something else to try please let me know thank you.
Is it only Powerline speeds that show this behaviour?

Re: Powerline 2000 adapters speed issue
I haven't found a set of powerline adapters that will max out a gigabit connection yet. Even if they're right next to each other.
Their "rated speeds" are even more overblown than wifi speeds.
Powerline drops off quickly with distance and seperating out circuits. And they're sensitive to interference.
hitting 100mbps+ if the powerline devices are on seperate circuits is pretty darned good.
I'd take a look at a few reviews on powerline devices for realistic expectations on what powerline does and is capable off.
Smallnetbuilder used to do great powerline reviews but hasn't done any since the 1200mbps series of the devices. I'd still recommend reading through those as they're well written and there wasn't much improvments from the 1200 series to the 2000 series.

You can even google for a few tested reviews on the 2000 series both from netgear and other suppliers as they follow the same powerline spec and have performance that is very similar.
I'd be doubting what you were actually looking up/testing prior. Maybe you were looking at the ethernet link speed and not actual throughput speeds.
