  • Summary: I have an existing set of the 401s running. In order to add these 406s I first had to break the 401 link, and in essence use the 406 as the "master".
  • Pros: No need to run Cat5e all over the house
  • Cons: Not as fast as it should've been

  • Summary: I previously had TrendNet's "200Mbps" variety which worked well but (like the other reviewer), I was hoping for more speed.
  • Pros: smaller (than prev gen & some competing units)
  • Cons: only 100Mbps i/f, so 200Mbps max at FDX (and the whole industry is misleading with the rated speeds, anyway)

Worse than the TPL-306E2K

  • Summary: First, the TPL-406E2K underperforms the older TPL-306E2K, even though it should theoretically be faster -- AV 500 vs. AV (200).
  • Pros: It's small and compact, compared to older HomePlug units.
  • Cons: These units are inferior to the Trendnet TPL-306E2K units that I already have. (It's the same brand, so I'm allowed to mention it in a review.)

  • Cons: Both the transmitter and the receiver flash red a good percentage of the time, which is sort-of annoying given that everything works fine even when the PL led is flash...

  • Summary: The 8 pin supplemental power was almost too short for my HAF.
  • Pros: Quiet
  • Cons: Cables aren't sleeved, but it was inexpensive anyway, so I wouldn't expect that much.
