These handy gadgets provide a direct line from your modem, through your houses internal power lines to your device. There are many options out there, and the Netcomm NP203 Powerline is the best one I have seen, here's why:

I use the TP-Link Powerline Adapter Starter Kit myself to bring the internet from my wireless modem upstairs directly to the consoles in the lounge. When I'm playing first person shooters I've found the wireless connection was getting me.. well.. unfairly pwned.

Powerline adaptors send the internet around using the power points we plug things into and what makes this one special is the 4 Port switch, it means I can have my Xbox, PS3, TV and PC all connected at once now so no more switching the cable back and forth.
