 Linksys HomeLink PhoneLine Network Card April 14, 2002
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Installed the Linksys HomeLink PhoneLine Network Cards on Win 95 and XP operating systems with the Linksys HomeLink Phoneline 10M cable/dsl router. The phoneline NIC's work great, easy to setup, and not a single problem with them. If you have a Linksys HomeLink Phoneline 10M cable/dsl router, this is the NIC to get for it.
 It works great when it finally works October 25, 2001

I networked three PCs using the Homelink Phoneline system. It took forever to get it working, because the documentation is very incomplete, but now that it's working, it's wonderful. My daughter attends an online academy and I teach online and we can both work at the same time without a problem. janet
 Linksys HPN100: a little slow January 8, 2001

The 1Mb/s transfer rate over POTS (phone line) is a little slow, and internet sharing crawls. The built-in ethernet port is nice, if you can run the cables.
