I want to move my PS4 to a floor higher. With a 30m Lan cable I would have to drill a hole in the wall. In addition, it can come at 30m but to kinks and breaks. Which LAN cable would I need to take? Below come with Lan 200mbit. There's still the alternative to Powerline. We have a fuse box, an electricity meter so probably a circuit. So should work. But I've heard that only 10% of the actual download speed. So is Powerline recommended?
Please do yourself a favor and do not take Powerline. This works as good as not at all. I also do not assume that it will be in a circuit if it is another floor.
For the LAN cable I would take at 30m s.besten a laying cable. And best CAT5e or even 6. Then there are zero problems and you have the full speed.
> It hardly works.
I can't confirm. The set of Devolo works for me over two floors from the basement to the roof better than any Wi-Fi. I was also skeptical at first, but I have to say that this is the best solution I've ever had.
Of course it is better than any W-LAN but that's not what it's all about. It's about cable vs. Powerline and there you have to be stupid or very lazy to use Powerline.
When it comes to Wi-Fi vs. Powerline would go, I would say take Powerline or even better cable. Cable is also usually cheaper
Are there no empty pipes in the house?
Of course, a cable is always the best, I just wanted to comment on your statement, where you say it works so well we do not. And that's just not true.
Powerline is an excellent alternative to the LAN cable. I have had the best experience!
I mean that's 30m CAT 7a. So the best of the best, which is in the case eigendlich unnecessary: https://amzn.to/2JOM6Ol
Then we need: https://amzn.to/...to/2LrS4b0
Total power rounded up 38 euro
The cheapest powerline adapter I've found costs around 50 euro. That can only 300mbit / s
The LAN cable can be 1000mbit / s
Not that it makes a difference these days but who knows, maybe they'll get a NAS or something and then you do not have to retool. In addition, cable is still cheaper.
So Powerline only makes sense if your laziness is worth 15 euro or more. Or if you can't or can't drill holes.
Les my comment, which is addressed to
What's that
Is also the maximum download speed?
Up to 1Gigabit download and upload. So if your router has "only" 200mbit, that comes without a problem. If you in the future, if Germany should be so far then faster speeds on the router, that is synonymous. Over 1000mbit wirste I think in the next 50 years do not come. Something has to be invented, so far this is not possible over long distances.
Then there must be something like this:

Yes ok, there you are right was stupid formulated by me. I meant that more on speed. Manufacturers often specify speeds that can't be achieved because so many data packets are lost and need to be retransmitted
I meant if the maximum powerline arrives
These are plastic pipes that are hollow inside, and where you can easily lay cables through the whole house later…
I can't imagine that. Especially not with the 300mbit things. If you get a good one for 150 euro, maybe you'll get it sooner.
Tubes made of plastic, which are placed in the walls during production in order to later be able to accommodate the electrical installations (for example cables).
* cough * WLAN… I make your powerline useless within 3 minutes…
Have you ever heard of UniFi? If not:
They make WLAN for stadiums and other halls… In the USA… I think there's nothing better in the market imo. Really funny is their mesh system…
As a LAN cable, you can take a normal, it should only be shielded and minimum CAT5.
Special mention of copper as the best of the best? FOR REAL?
No i said CAT7a is the best you can get for shielding copper
There are actually at least since 1980 in new buildings…
:) is okay… You do it
