This is an amazingly simple but powerful way of banishing WiFi problems and giving your desktop computer or laptop a faster and more stable internet connection.<\/p>\n<p>Because Powerline uses the existing electrical circuitry in your home, you won&#8217;t need to worry about running any new wires around your house.

Your broadband router and computer\/laptop should each have ports that look like this.<\/p>\n<p>Routers usually have four &#8216;LAN&#8217; Ethernet ports grouped together \u2013 any of these are fine for completing step 2 below, but avoid connecting to any port marked &#8216;WAN&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Near your broadband router<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Plug\u00a0a Powerline adapter in to a free wall socket.<\/li>\n<li>Connect the adapter to the router, using one of the Ethernet cables.<\/li>\n<li>Turn on the power to the adapter.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Near your computer\/laptop<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li>Plug\u00a0a Powerline adapter in to a free wall socket.<\/li>\n<li>Connect\u00a0the adapter to the computer\/laptop, using one of the Ethernet cables.<\/li>\n<li>Turn on the power to the adapter.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>You should now be online, because almost all computers and laptops will be set up to allow Ethernet connections to work straight away.<\/p>\n<p>Note that for Powerline to work, the wall sockets used must be on the same electrical circuit \u2013 this is the case in most homes.<\/p>\n<h2>Bonus feature: using Powerline with other devices<span class=\"accent\">.<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Because Powerline is really just a way of extending the\u00a0internet connection around your home, you&#8217;re not limited to connecting only\u00a0computers. Any device that supports Ethernet can be connected to the internet in this way.<\/p>\n<p>For example,\u00a0Powerline works well with Sky TV boxes. The process is exactly the same as the one above, except that one of the Powerline adapters is\u00a0connected to a\u00a0Sky box instead of a computer\/laptop.
