The speed-up of having not just ethernet connected (to the network extended via powerlines) – first part of the graph – versus ethernet + WiFi (to the same network) – second part of the graph – is quite pronounced.

(Running latest Fedora Silverblue without any special network tweaking.)

@aral Powerline is still pretty slow then? I went to the trouble of installing ethernet to the router and I get a full gbit, so around 100MiB/s.

@ainmosni That probably had more to do with the server I was connecting to. Here’s a speedtest I just ran to a server in Dublin.

(But yes, powerline does cut the bandwidth down considerably. Can easily halve it. I can get close to 1Gbit if I connect directly to the main router downstairs.)
