Before I praise all the glory that is the Linksys PLK300 I have to thank my homegirl Carrie Waite for recommending it to me in the first place. So in case you’re wondering what this little piece of awesome is (and you’re too damn lazy to Google it) I’ll tell you…
You know how you move into a new place and you’ve got no place to plug in your ethernet cables unless you want one running across the floor or tacked to the wall(s)? Or maybe you called someone that wanted to charge you a ridiculous amount of money to install said wiring because you’re too chickenshit to get under your house through the crawlspace and do it yourself? Well then this little gadget is the answer. Real simple, you plug one of the boxes into your router and plug the power source directly into the wall and then you connect the other box to another electrical outlet and run a cable from it to the computer you want on the network. You see where I’m going with this? That’s right. It utilizes the electrical wiring in your house instead of using ethernet cable(s) AND it seems to work even better than it did when I had the wire running from my living room to my office. I’m not gonna lie, I’m pretty stoked. Now let’s see if I can come home drunk and not trip on any wires. Oh wait, there’s still the whole furniture/shin situation I’m still trying to rectify.
