Expand your home network instantly without running wires – Create
high-speed Internet connections anywhere in your home without running wires
between rooms. Just use your home's electrical wiring to create a network.
Set-up is as easy as plugging in a lamp – Plug one adapter into your router and
an electrical outlet. Plug the other adapter into an electrical outlet in any room where
you want a high-speed connection.
Faster and more reliable than wireless – With speed up to 200 megabits per
second*, the WD Livewire Powerline AV network kit is fast enough for every
computer in your home to share your broadband internet connection and still have
the velocity you need to smoothly stream 1080p full-HD video to your TV.
*Your performance may vary based on network conditions and volume of network traffic.
More ports for more devices – The WD Livewire adapter kit offers 4 ports on both
devices in the pair. This allows you to plug in your router and up to seven
Internet-connected devices such as computers, TVs, game consoles, media
players, and network storage drives.
Encrypted for security – The data transfer between the WD Livewire adapters is
protected with the same 128-bit encryption that you trust for your online banking
and shopping. And because the encryption is automatic, there’s no need to
remember a password.
