Strengths:
No setup, pl;ug in and go.
Extremely fast. Tested at 630 Mbps, so better than 600.
Torrents just as fast as on cable and faster than what double speed wireless N ever gave me.
Streaming Netflix to upstairs bedroom, main computer in the other bedroom/office, third connector (I call it the server powerline) on Telus modem downstairs.
Speed tests to two upstairs units shows simultaneous transfer of 1.2 Gbps? WTF? That's double the PHY rating of 600 Mbps, testing software must have been fooled....
Weaknesses:
Takes one plug, live with it.
One year warranty definitely sucks. I hope these last 2 years and then the 1 Gbit powerline adapters will be cheap so I'll get them then....
Additional Comments:
Works in a joined 2 story large 3 bedroom townhouse, so no problem with electrical wiring.
Faster that the super wireless N everyone is hawking, I turned my wireless off..
No noticeable difference between wired and using these powerline adapters.
Hope they last 2 years.You have to get these if you have a lot of wires to install.

Strengths:
Fast Connection - Worked like magic straight out of the box. I bought it to expand my network . I have the Telus router in the living room but all the computers and media are upstairs and it is very difficult to run a cable. this solution was the faster and the cheapest one that I could find.
Connected one down in the living room to the Telus router , and one upstairs to a switch that connects all my devices. They synch right away even before my pc booted and I was ready to go. Everything works.
Weaknesses:
Didn't find one yet - Using it for about a week.
Additional Comments:
Great Product. I am streaming HD content from my NAS which is located upstairs to the living room to the media player without any problems, even that one of the adapters is plugged in thru a power bar and not directly thru a wall.
