It plugs into an electrical outlet and uses your existing electrical wiring to give your entire household access to your Cable/DSL connection. With no expensive new wiring or cabling to install, you can surf the Web, participate in online gaming, send and receive e-mail, and share files and printers, all from different rooms at the same time.
