How to play video games using internet through a power outlet

Internet gaming is something that is increasingly becoming more and more popular. With that comes more and more problems with internet accessibility. One major problem is getting internet to an area away from the router or not wanting to use/have wireless internet. An easy solution to this problem is power line adapters. They send your wireless internet through your home wiring so that it can usually work in any room that has a power adapter. You can check out my hub about this as well at http://hubpages.com/hub/videogamesthroughhomewireing I personally use this option with my x-box and it works wonderfully. There can be problems associated with your home wiring though. If there is a problem like a bad wire or a lapse in connectivity, then the connection could lag or be considerably bad.
To do this kind of connection you first need to buy a power line adapter which usually costs anywhere from 50-100 dollars. Once you have the adapter you need to set it up depending on what type of power line adapter you bought. I have a Netgear adapter which runs perfectly. You have two adapters to use. One that plugs into the wall by your router, and another that plug into the wall at the desired location of the internet connection. NOTE: They must be plugged into the wall and not a power strip or extension cord for this will defeat the purpose of going through your home wiring. You then must connect the two adapters. To do this follow the directions that come with the adapter of your choice. Once connected, you plug a ethernet cable into each adapter and then one into your router and the other into your x-box, computer, or other type of internet enabled device. You then should have unrestricted access depending on your router settings to all the internet you want and the adapters will shut off when the console or computer is not using the internet and will come on again when turning on the device and enjoy!
