Advantages: Fast network solution, very easy to setup Disadvantages: Slightly too wide for some sockets
apparently uses 128 bit AES encryption for security purposes, though I'm wondering how someone would tap into your home electricity supply (maybe if you're sharing a house or in a block of flats it might be useful - answers on a postcard please)!
You can also use the HomePlug for other Internet gadgets such as games consoles. There have been issues with some Xbox consoles so be warned. I don't have any games consoles so I cannot say for certain what the issues are exactly.
It is particularly useful for people who don't like wireless routers or were given free non-wireless routers from their Internet Service Provider.

Advantages: Easy Installation, reliable, good value Disadvantages: Limited customer services
The ZyXel Prestige router is affordable and reliable. I haven't set up a wireless network before so was happy to discover that the Prestige was easy to install and set-up with a multimedia presentation and documnetation to guide you through the process. The router provides a fast, reliable ADSL connection and the small, unobtrusive unit can be easily hidden out of site. The unit provides great value for money as it comes with a free USB connector therfore providing everything you need to set up a wireless connection instantly.
