I bought the non-WiFi versions without realising they were ethernet only. Doh!

The odd thing is my understanding was that they would not work on separate ring mains but they do seem to - unless I really don't understand my slightly dodgy wiring. The instructions say something like they need to be under "the same meter", not the same circuit breaker. The last problem is you seem to need Windows to configure the WiFi password so I am going to have to fire up my old laptop to see if I can do that.
