Here’s a useful gadget: the Diamond Multimedia HP200AV Powerline AV Ethernet Adapter Kit. It expands your Internet connection by using the AC wall outlets in your home or office. All you have to do is plug in the two adapters to your electrical outlets. Then you plug one adapter to your cable modem or network router, and the other adapter to an Internet-ready device (TVs, media players, Blu-ray players, gaming consoles, computers). It’s great for streaming online content like Netflix or games to your TV. I wish I had this kit so I can stream content to my TV. I’m currently using a Wi-Fi connection, but sometimes the wireless Internet connection has problems that cause the video to pause way too often. Thanks to Diamond Multimedia, one lucky follower of geek dad blog will win the HP200AV Powerline AV Ethernet Adapter Kit. I would like to enter, but I’m sure you guys would have a cow if I picked myself as the winner. Just a hunch.

I sure hope I win. Love the thought of using this system as our wireless router is located in the basement and sometimes can lose a bit of signal on the 3rd floor.
