That is as reported by the Netgear software that analyzes the home plugs on the network. I actually have 4 homplugs in 2 pairs

My internet comes from my elderly motorola cable modem - homeplug 1 - to paired homeplug 2 and then into a netgear G wireless router (purely to move the wireless router away from the moden reducing cabling, the router is actually in a storage cupboard that fortunately has a socket in it), from one of the router ports I have another 2 paired homeplug to take a hardwired signal elsewhere (or infact anywhere I have a plugpoint)

EDIT:- I should add I have 2 of the homeplugs in power strip extensions, Netgear say that this can have an effect on speed - homwever I don't really notice it.
