Hey guys!

 

This is literally my third posting asking for some sort of help today, but better safe than sorry!

 

So, I'm looking to get my connection from my study over to my room, the best part of 10-15m away, through multiple walls.

 

The Wifi connection JUST reaches the room, however cannot reach my desk.

 

We currently have 1 power line adapter plugged in at the only available plug socket next to my router, and the adapter then routes to my PC. (I didn't set this up). There are no wires going from the adapter, to the router itself. This adapter then links to another adapter next to a BT vision box downstairs. The BT home hub is above the adapter for reference.

 

Now, i need some way to get the connection over to my room taking into account we already have two adapters plugged in and no free plugs next to the computer.

 

Is it possible to purchase another of these adapters and plug it into my room, then pair it with the one next to the computer?

 

Very confused, so power line, wow.

 

Help would be appreciated!

AFAIK you can have multiple powerline adapters running although I haven't done it myself. When I got to the point where I wanted more things connected then I was also getting annoyed with some of the speed bumps I was hitting with powerline. I suspect that adding more adapters in the mix is going to slow the overall performance of your powerline gear down.... but it'll still be better than WiFi through multiple walls.
