so I got the Netgear powerline adapters....looking at my input of the net in the house....

Posted by Remlik (aka remlik) Jan 4 '10, 18:23

it goes like this

Modem to router connected by an ethernet cable

I only have one ethernet slot in the modem

So I need to connect the powerline adapter via ethernet to the modem...but I only have one ethernet slot....

so I need to buy a modem with 2 ethernet slots now? which is fine

It goes in the router, not the cable modem. I thought the same thing at first. -- nm - David Jan 4, 18:29

  - yes, the powerline adapators basically act as a long ethernet cable. -- nm - tRuMaN Jan 4, 18:30 1
