If you purchased this you'll receive two Powerline Adapters in the box (we'll call them PA's from this point forward), and two ethernet cables. You take one PA and plug in the enclosed ethernet cable into the bottom of the PA. You then plug that ethernet cable into your router and then plug the PA into an electrical mains socket on the wall near to your router.
Next you take the 2nd PA to another room where you have a device you wish to access the internet with (ie TV, Playstation, XBox, Other PC etc etc). Again, plug in the enclosed ethernet cable into the bottom of the PA and then plug the other end of the ethernet cable into the device you wish to access the internet. Then plug the PA into an electrical socket near to the device.
Now you sync the two PAs. It tells you how to do this in the instructions in the box but it requires no technical knowledge, they basically just plug in, switch on and recognise each other on the network you've created (you created a network by carrying out the above procedures).
Once they're synced with each other you will be able to access the internet on the 'other' device. It really is that simple.
Hope that helps.

No. Your internet speed will remain the same at the main router but it could improve the speed you are getting at the 'other' device you're using to access the internet if you're accessing via wifi.

It will put an end to 'wifi' drop outs if that is the problem you are having. As for speed, the transfer rate is up to 200Mbps.

If you buy two lots do you have to use two ethernet ports on your router?

No. You can pair the 2nd set to go with the first so you can have one plugged in to the router and three others around the house.
