Help needed ASAP reagrding the ZyXEL 200 homeplugs

[kingy]

Right I bought the pair of ZyXEL Powerline 200mbs HomePlugs that were on offer

These are working brilliantly for the lads xbox360

Now the other lad is pestering for the same thing instead of wireless

I have saved this at pc world

ZyXEL P660HWP Super G+ Wireless ADSL Router with Powerline HomePlug AV

Will I be able to use that to replace my existing o2 router then use the 2 plugs that i already have to connect the 2 xb360s up to the router?

It seems cheaper to buy the router at £24.97 rather than pay out for another plug


please let me know if this will work before i go 10 mile to pc world in morning

[kingy]

anybody?

[kingy]

well looks like im gonna have to take a gamble

Never used a Homeplug set up, but from the description, it looks like it should be ok .... it refers to multiple PCs, so it should all be compatible.

If you're buying from PissyWorld, they will change it anyway, if it turns out not to be compatible, so go for it ;)
