PoE, Lag spikes and Powerline adapters

[Kao]

So like dozens of people I get the famous lag spikes while playing PoE through wifi.
A common fix for that is to go full ethernet, which I can't right now.

Has anyone fixed that problem using powerline adapters?
I'm considering them but they're a bit pricy.

I'm using powerline adapters works fine. I bought the TP-Link AV1000 Gigabit Powerline ethernet Adapter kit, Powerline speeds Up to 1000Mbps (TL-PA7010 KIT) on Amazon for 49.99

isn't it easier to just buy a ethernet cable?

[Awesome!]

the quality of powerline adapters rely heavily on how your house is wired. i forget exactly since i dont use them myself but you should do a bit of research before investing i think.

Basically if your house is wired to at least decent standards - you'll probably have good results. If your house has crappy and ghetto-rigged wiring powerline adapters are probably not going to give you as good of result.

Did you have lag spikes before?
I'm sure power lines can work with PoE, what I wonder is if people having lag spikes because of Wifi were able to fix it when switching to powerline.
Some people have a good poe experience with wifi so.. knowing some have a good experience with powerline does not tell me a lot except if they were having problems with wifi before :).

Thanks for helping, however I spent some time figuring out how those devices work, what I kinda need to know is if switching from wifi to powerline fixes the lag spike problems for those who have them. when you google "poe lag spikes" you realize a lot of players experience an unstable PoE experience because they're using wifi (specifically with poe). However I couldn't find any thread about people fixing said problem by switching to powerline, hence my inquiry here ^^

this is a fairly specific request for personal experience. i would try posting on reddit to get more people to see it. this forum doesnt get a lot of traffic

Ah, never used reddit before, maybe I should give it a try indeed. the request is pretty specific yea. but looking at the amount of people complaining about packet loss with a good wifi + PoE, I was hoping to get some attention here.

I still have some lag in hub areas at times but I haven't noticed it when im out running around adventuring.

Trust me reddit aint worth it. Pretty much the same kind of garbage community as twitter or youtube lol
