right after getting my skybox set up buying youview box to keep my mrs sweet with recording her soaps ive noticed people mentioning homeplugs as a better wifi option...im totally clueless on this! can they be used for my youview box or f5 box to transmit back and forth to my upstairs/downstairs tv or both at the same time even?? ( this would be ideal if they could ) i used to have a tv link for sky but they not compatable with the boxes i have now. ive had a look on ebay seeing how much the homeplugs cost but i would love some much needed info and direction about how best to use them and which are the best and price wise . my broadband speed is about 4mg sky is my provider ( i have no idea if this is helpful for anyone telling me about the homeplugs but just incase )

im using homeplugs i like you knew nothing about them,basically plug one into plug socket where your router is.then plug the other in wall socket where your box is put earthernet cable in you then have internet to your box.plug has to be in wall socket not an extension.

ha i know what they are but unsure how they worked basically fella,so as long as i put one by my router i can place the other plug where ever providing its not in an extension and as long as i plug ethernet cable into a box im good to go??

Yes thats right.Plug one near the router and the other one you can plug in any household socket anywhere else in house ( obviously it will be the nearest plug to your desktop etc)

Pc worlds do one s for around ?20, very good. I have had mine for a year and no problem with them and give fast speed as well
