So it is wireless between the d-link devices? And does this give support to my router because I have very bad Internet and it lags sometimes when i play.

@callofdutyAB These PowerLine devices are not wireless. They use your electrical lines like an ethernet or network cable where you can then attach a wired device to the other end or add a wireless access point to extend your wireless coverage. Hope this helps!

How do I connect this to my iPhone 4 please? Do I need a separate adapter,( wall unit to iPhone ) thanks

[DLinkTV]

@iaingbrennan Yes, you would need a different device, or use PowerLine adapter with wireless built-in, like the DHP-w306av. All you would need is one normal PowerLine adapter connected to your router and the DHP-w306av connect to a wall outlet anywhere else in your house.

@benghaith If I understand your question correctly, you are looking to use the second PowerLine adapter to connect your AirPort Extreme/Airport Express as an access point or AP. If so, YES. This is a great example of how to use PowerLine to extend your wireless network. You will not want to set the AirPort device as a second router though. You will have to change the wireless settings on the Airport device yourself. Good luck!

[benghaith]

Is it possible to connect the other end of the second power line adapter to a router (Say an AirPort Extreme or AirPort Express) rather than connecting it to a PC or a Mac? Would the network will be the same network or each adapter should be isolated on a separate conf.?
