Hey guys,
I have a gaming PC that I recently hooked up via TP link powerline, as the router is across the house. The Powerline is an older model, but is rated at 500mb/s. I am using a brand new xfinity gateway, and am able to achieve 500mb/s download on wifi, but I am only able to achieve 38-40mb/s on my PC. I am using cat5 ethernet cables, and an MSI Z97S SLI PLUS motherboard. I would like to troubleshoot the problem, but I do not have a device that I can plug in to test the connection, nor can I move the computer. Is it possible that the electrical lines in the house could cause a bottleneck? The house was built about 15 years ago.
Thanks,
E
