No cables running throughout the house. Just plug into the phone lines. Easy installation, and the network is up and ready to go!

Works effectively at home. Easy to set up. Make sure you get the latest software from the Intel website. I needed to call Intel support and was disappointed that their rep told me to delete files that then required me to reload windows......... Notwithstanding this I highly recommend the product for Internet and printer sharing.

I have four computers networked and working very well with this adapter -- for more than a year. There are some bugs. You need to use Intel Connectivity Suite 2.20 for the best stability and ease of use on the Windows 98 platform. You need to manually give the computers IP addresses for the local network (LAN) -- 192.168.01, etc. for the best stability. If you have one computer on XP, then you must use version 2.30.02 (downloadable from Intel) on all of the computers. If XP and 2.30.02 are in the equation, then I would suggest you use Microsoft ICS instead of Intel ISS for Internet Sharing -- again, it is just more stable and you then do not need to manually give the local comptuters IP addresses. Unfortunately, this product has been discontinued. However, Intel support -- both website and phone -- is still great for this product. ptb

I've been using mine for over a year with no problems. The adapters work great in my place, and I have some *old* phone wiring.

When I first installed the anypoint network it worked fine except for Intel's Internet Connection Sharing. The performace degraded so bad that I was running less than a 14.4K modem speed on my ICS clients. I re-installed it with everything except the Internet Connection Sharing. Then I ran Microsoft's Home Network Wizard. It has worked up to par ever since.
