Comtrend Powerline Ethernet Adapter PowerGrid902

[efyap]

Hi everyone, I recently converted to mio. As my mio hub is on the study room (3rd floor) whereas my TV (for mio) is on the 2nd floor, they installed the Comtrend Powerline Ethernet Adapter PowerGrid902 for me instead of extending a very long cable from 3rd floor to 2nd floor.

It's really great. So in my excitement, I forgot to ask the SingTel staff who installed the mio hub if I can buy more adapters as it's a lot faster as compared to wireless network.

Anyone knows if I can call SingTel to buy more units of the adapter or I can find this in SLS or Funan or anywhere in SG? Thanks!

edit:
intellon (and thus aztech) is a partner of Homeplug Power Alliance.
comtrend and netgear are partners of Universal Powerline Association. So perhaps can buy netgear powerline adapters to expand in future. please check netgear website for product compatility.

If 200++ for a pair, price will be very similar to Aztech Homeplug. But dun think Aztech is compatible. sigh.. tot SingTel got lobang. Thanks for the info. You checked with SingTel on this before?

200++ per pair seems expensive based on current market prices? I think other brands now below 180... but first pair for 53.50 is cheap...

[alanchia67]

$53 is cheap as this is subsidized by singnet.

I have a pair of Aztech homeplugs and a pair of comtrend homeplugs. When I tried using both sets simultaneously, the connection through the Aztech failed.

Read other thread please!
The Aztech and comtrends are NOT compatible due to different powerline standards
