Q7.
What
main
advantages
does
a
Powerline
adapter
have
over
a
wireless
device?
A:
The
Powerline
adapter
is
a
plug
&
play
device,
requiring
no
configuration.
Wireless
signal
not
only
is
easily
affected
adversely
by
obstacles
like
walls
and
ceilings
but
also
neighboring
networks.
Q8:
Can
Powerline
devices
of
different
brands
communicate
with
each
other?
A:
Yes.
This
Medialink
Powerline
adapter
complies
with
HomePlug
AV
standard
and
thus
can
communicate
with
other
manufacturers’
HomePlug
AV
‐
compliant
Powerline
devices.
Q9.
Will
the
Powerline
network
get
disconnected
when
the
power
goes
out?
A:
Yes.
The
Powerline
network
delivers
data
over
electric
wiring
via
electricity.
Without
presence
of
electricity
alone
the
wires,
data
transmission
by
Powerline
adapters
is
made
impossible.
Q10.
Would
it
be
dangerous
to
use
the
Powerline
adapter
in
a
thunderstorm?
A:
The
adapter’s
internal
lightning
proof
facility
protects
PCs
or
other
devices
connected
against
any
potential
and
harmful
lightning
attacks.
