Powerline Adapters available at Comms Express

Powerline Adaptors are a great way of ensuring that a WiFi Network can reach every part of your house or office space without the need for cables running all over the place. Powerline Adaptors optimise the use of electricity within a property to ensure that WiFi signals are transmitted efficiently.

Powerline adaptors are relatively hassle-free. They are installed by simply plugging the first adaptor near (and connecting) to your router or modem and then plugging the second adaptor in the area that is suffering from a lack of WiFi Network (then connecting any devices to this adaptor). It is possible to add as many adaptors to your house or office space as required, ensuring fast network speeds. For more options to extend your WiFi network you can also view our best WiFi range extenders.

So if you need to increase your WiFi Network with a Powerline Adaptor but are not sure where to start let’s point you in the right direction with our review of some of the best Powerline Adaptors:
