Hi guys
I'm trying to work out if home plug technology has come on in the last few years. My dad has 40mb fibre in the bedroom and using a firestick 2 in the living room. He has sly internet sb201 router. I can get the firestick to connect with good/very good connection but he is getting the odd glitch on the odd footy game. I have the same server and it usaully rock solid. He had some older homeplugs that i connected up yesterday with a ethernet adpater for the firestick. It looked good at first but after leaving i told its garbage and un watchable. I went round today to check the homeplugs expecting something like 85mb or 100mb plugs but it turns out he has netgear av500 homeplugs. I guess they are 4 to 5 years old. I was looking at some tp-link av600 plugs in currys at £25.99 and wondering if he could get a much better connection. I understand that av2 means they now use the earth wire to give bigger bandwidth. Anyone any ideas as i am not sure if these are new av2 compliant.
