I cheated then. I looked up the search term on the Devolo Website.

I agree about bridge mode being a pain. I�ve had to start using it recently to bridge from the O2 router to my wired LAN and although it works fine for a lot of the time it occasionally loses connection on the WiFi side and then manual intervention is required to re-establish bridging. And although I have 13Mps on the ADSL connection (direct wired TB speed test result) and a good 54Mps WiFi connection I only get about 8Mps into the internet across the bridge (TB speed test result). I guess this is due to latency. I am thinking of going the homeplug route instead, but using the 200 Mps plugs rather than the 85 Mps I have used previously to connect to my Slingbox.
