AVM FRITZ!Powerline 510E Set DE, 2 adapters
500 Mbit/s
Have been using AVM products for 20 years, never been disappointed.
It was the first powerline application and the disappointment because of the small transfer rate was big, see Contra
Note: The other devices are connected to a 1 Gbit/s switch and their actual transfer rate between 2 PCs is on average 500 Mbit/s

I run the devices on a multiple plug (not recommended by the manufacturer and probably costs some data throughput, but still works well). As the devices only have 1 LAN connection, only 1 end device (PC etc.) can be connected directly (but this can be easily solved with a small additional switch). When operating on an AVM Fritz! router, the Power Line Adapter can be configured via the router web access.

Delivery took a little longer, but I am satisfied. The price is top
I have a 500mb line. This thing is supposed to be so great and deliver 500. I tested it and got 250-260 MB with my laptop, which is 10 years old, via WLAN...
This plastic thing delivered barely 40mb via LAN...
My Higend Gaming PC only got 20mb/s...
I sent this thing back because it doesn't even come close to what AVM promises!

Plug & Play worked perfectly. Installation took...2 minutes...
Installed between a swisscom internet box and a Chinese outdoor camera (that couldn't work over wifi...only over LAN). Also, the power is on different phases of the house.
So, in conclusion I'm very happy of this product :)
Let's see on the long term...

Functions even at the end of a 30m cable reel in the garden.

The boxes are specified with a max. throughput of 500 Mbit/s. It was clear to me from the beginning that this is a theoretical value - but I would have expected 150-200 Mbit/s. After plugging in, the throughput was about 25 Mbit/s, by applying the advice of the manual and the help of AVM support, I was able to increase the value to about 45 Mbit/s. Really unusable for me. Both sockets used are 10m away as the crow flies on the same floor and have the same phase.
The downloadable AVM app gives 65-100 Mbit/s throughput, but these values were not confirmed by any other tools. Three different tools all showed transfer rates of around 45 Mbit/s. Will be returning it.

Delivery top, works fine - luckily probably got the right circuit :-)

I bought this product because I get wireless "only" 100 Mbps. Notebook directly plugged into the router with Cat.6 cable I get over 900 Mbps, (so it's not the connection). Peak speed with Powerline was 50 Mbit/s. According to the description it should be 500 Mbit/s. Have transmitter and receiver for test purposes connected to the same power strip, still only 94 Mbit/s (see picture). Absolutely not recommended. Am wireless still faster...
