Hi, Actually, it is because the power strips often have a built-in surge suppressor which filters out the entire signal. It is recommended that you don't use any power strip...instead, plug directly into the power outlet.

First, just give it a try and it may work. There is no formula that I have found to figure out if a link will work or not. Second, one thing that seems to effect it more than you would expect is power strips. Using power strips seems to really kill things so I would suggest plugging the units directly into the wall. As for speed, I've saturated a 10mb Ethernet segment and have not had the chance to take it further and test on 100mb yet since I have had no need.
