Thank you for your review! I bought this item and it was so easy to set up and it works great! My room is no longer the "internet dead-zone" of the house and it is super fast!

This is by far the best solution to setting up a wifi access point in the home of office without the need to run long lengths of cable.. Fantastic easy setup, the speed loss is very slight... Fab product

Excellent review. Clear and to the point. Thank you. I was really excited to see Metroid II: Return of Samus on the shelf back there. Ahhhh.......memories.

Bought this around 8 months ago. Works great for connecting wired ethernet to my ps4 and another one to my smart TV which are far away from my router.

BY FAR the best video on how this system works and how to set it up!! Thanks!!

Like the visuals. Good explanation. Thumbs up

Nicely done. Helped me with my choice/purchase. Works well in Basement for Fire TV

The 500Mbps are for powerline-to-powerline... The LAN ports are 100Mbps and that's the maximum you can get from this device. A good thing is that you can have several multiple connections all running close to 100Mbps.

When choosing power line should I just get the cheapest one since I only have 50mbps? and can use use wireless and wired at same time?

Great video, thanks for the help.

Great video. A quick question.....what is your download speed from your router....? That would give me an idea of how much degradation there is in the system. Thanks

curious to know if this will boost the range from my house to my workshop that is about 100ft away, I do get connection but loose about 1/2 the strength.

Is it effect if the sender and the receiver power supply are fed from different power line phases ? in our flat we are using 3-phase supply where each phase is feeding different locations

Hi Lon, I just ordered this kit from Amazon. Can you confirm that the 2 ethernet ports on the larger device can be used simultaneously by 2 PCs?

My question is, Is it taking the ethernet that it receives through the powerline and putting it out as wifi? or is it only providing the ethernet through the wall to the wifi plugin's ethernet ports and the wifi portion is only for repeating wifi that it in range?

Hey Lon, 2 years later, what product would you recommend for extending 5 GHz band?

I live in an old sandstone house. My laptop is in the basement at the back of the house and my router is upstairs. I could only get a very weak WiFi signal in the basement and powerline has been the answer. I am not technically minded but I had my TP Link adapters out of the box and working in a matter of minutes. It is recommended not plugging these adapters into a power strip so the (more expensive) pass through versions are especially useful as you can then plug your power strip into the adapter. No software or complicated configuration is required - it is literally plug and play and the adapters “find” one another quickly. If you want to create a fully secure network you can press the encryption buttons. I have personally not bothered as no one else has access to my house electricity. I now have a reliable broadband connection for my laptop thanks to powerline.

hello there. i just saw your video. can i plug one side from my neighbers house and the other side plug in to my room. will that increase the signal?

I installed one power line adapter TL-PA4010 and two extender TL-WPA4220. Those works fine. I need some more extender TL-WPA4220 to use in one system(adapter TL-PA4010). Please let me know maximum number of extender that I can use in one system. Thanks.

What will you guys recommend for video transfers/ and playing Smooth 4K video. I have the tp link 2000 and I can't play smooth 4K video am getting 8up 15down and it's still not playing a 4K 30f video smoothly I have a apple extreme in the living room and. iMac in the bedroom any ideas would help! Thanks

Have you thought about actually demonstrating how to set up?

Will this work well for a slow iptv box it is giving me buffering and is very slow

does it work if you put them on different floors? One is on the ground floor and the 2nd one on the 2nd floor for example?

And if I may... a follow-up question. Is it faster to run a wire from the adapter at the far end to my media device, or do you get about the same speed as WiFi? And one more... Does this support 5Ghz? Sorry for all the questions. I'm a newby to powerline networking; just considering it for the first time.

I just installed one of these and it seems to have cancelled out my modem? I cannot get a signal from my modem even if the TP Link is disconnected. Any ideas?????

Hi Lon. I always enjoy your videos. They are well-done and informative. One question for your clarification: I think I heard you say that a realistic speed for these is around 30mbs. You said it is not good for streaming video (primarily for me, NF & KZfaq). Netflix recommends 5mbs to stream their service in HD. So, what causes this to not work well for streaming. I ask because I'm getting real close to deciding on this, since running ethernet cable to my media center would be very difficult (no basement and no attic access to where I would want to drop a line down the wall). Thank you.

if you set it up can i connect to the modem and can i connect to the powerline extender?

Can this be used on an Sony Blue Ray Player (Ref BDP-S1100)?

My TP link was disconnecting so I turn off the power saving on powelines hope it fixed it.

can i connect it the one that connects to the router on an outlet extender?

Hey, I'm looking into buying this product as I have a shed at the bottom of my garden which does not receive any WiFi signal whatsoever, however is about 30m away from my wireless router. Would this reach the distance that I need? Thanks

You have to try different outlets. I have one by my router in the basement , I have the other unit out in my barn which is about 100 ft away and is powered by an underground line in pipe. It works great ...I had a really hard time getting wireless out there. With powerline Ethernet, I've got a beater computer out there for looking up parts, iTunes, check email, etc. Different outlets even in the same room will give different results ...trial and error.

Hi there can you tell me if these TP Link Powerline Adapters will they only work with Fibre Optic Broadband connections?

Thanx for the video. I guess you have to make sure that the adaptors have to be connected to the same 120VAC Phase??

my security cameras DVR box requires an Ethernet cable connection to my router (located 50 feet away). Can I use the powerline adapters instead? thanks

Do you have any URL for the download of the application to find the IP address

can you use power splitter? which is already plugged into eu wall socket?

does this rebroadcast the ethernet single it gets from the circuitry? Or does it rebroadcast an existing wifi signal?

I live in a duplex. I have the router in the 1st house and I need and wifi on the 2nd house. Can I still use this, considering that each house has its own electrical system?

will this work if I have ethernet to my ps4 and I'm playing online than have to powerline wifi on my phone.will both ethernet and wifi work from this at the same time

Great video but it did not work for my customer, I had him buy a TP link two unit model such as the one in this video.. after more than an hour trying to set-up at a distance with him on the phone I gave-up, it seem that power line models work on the same electrical circuit, but when on a different circuit it may not function, so it got returned to Amazon. I told my customer to go and buy the Netgear wall plug wifi mesh single extender that was in-stock at his local Staples store. It has worked perfectly, my customer has an IP phone that is far from the router and requires a wired connection. With the WPS setup I was able to guide him over the phone. Really great during Covid as he is 79.

can i use it as a powerline and a wifi extender at the same time?

Hey, cool vid.. I bought the 600 wifi one.. The phone can find the connection but the laptop can connect but no internet found? Any ideas please? The phone is at max internet speed now!! These plugs are magic!!

Hey Lon, I bought this item from your website a while ago and the small unit isn't functioning anymore. I just want to ask if it comes with any kind of warranty, or what can you advise me in this situation. What's the best way to contact you in the future? thanks

How long have you had this? I want to buy this today but many people Are complaining on reviews that it disconnects a lot

Is it still working perfectly? Im thinking about buying one but i have a few questions. My router is in the basement and i want to put the adapter upstairs in my room, would it still connect? Is the connection stable? is it fast? My house is 2-3 stories. Would it work? thanks for the reply

I live in a 1962 house that has old electric wiring that doesn't even have a ground. I don't know if it would work.

I need help! I just got this today and finished the setup. Using ethernet from the powerline extender to my computer, i'm only getting 20mbps max. That is the same as my 2.4 ghz speed but I can get 80+ mbps on 5ghz on my other devices (ipad, iphone). How can I get the same speed as my 5ghz speed which I'm paying for on my pc?

Lon. Tv, no. Breakers in the Electrical wiring will cause delays for Ethernet in house. Most newer homes have 15amp breakers per plugins. I have 20 amp in my house because my father worked for the electric utility company locally, so he knew how to wire. You can upgrade the code if doing your own. Inspectors "have" to pass them because of the higher standard!!!

Can the firs part be used without the etharnet cable conection if the power line a far from the ruther.CAn bout sides be used wieresly, exept the powerline part. signal on bouth sides, resive and the second one send out

Could you do the actual set-up?

Does it work when power is cut off

would my ping be better with this or with hard wire to the modem?

I'd like to find something I can use to boost my reception outside to play Pandora on my ipad. Any suggestions?

so if my max isp speed is 100mbps i dont need one of their fanciers tp links?

Since this extender goes through the powerline, will the connection still be strong enough to play games, stream movies even though im a couple of rooms far away from the first device who's connected to my router? Please answer quick!

will this work in an office building? we get internet by way of wifi but because our office sits in the front corner of the building the wifi sucks.

We also had alot of issues with weak wifi signal upstairs in the bedrooms so we bought such a TP-link kit with an AV600 extender in it. Plugging it in did work using the cables but to change the SSID and password on the wifi didn't go smooth at all. Our Proximus modem does have a WPS button and pushing it allows it's LED to blink but the AV600 didn't change anything, it kept it's TP-link SSID name and password. I tried to connect to it using my browser and it's IP-address but instead of getting the built-in webpage for configuration, I just got a screen that showed that there was an issue and I was probably connected to it on a guest network while I was connected to it directly using the supplied TCP network cable AND the wifi SSID and password that was listed on the device itself. And one solution was to install the Tether app on my phone to configure it. Tried that and the app found my AV600 device but couldn't login to it. Seems Tether didn't work with the AV600. Eventually I found an utility from TPLink that scans your network and lists all your TP-link devices. Upon clicking the device in that app, it opened my browser with the same IP as I tried manually before, but this time it displayed the proper webinterface page and allowed me to configure it and give it the same SSID as my modem so it's the same network essentially. This took me more than 2 hours to configure while it should only be a 5-minute job using the pair-buttons on the devices and the WPS button on the modem. And I also noticed some dropouts where the device looses connection for short periods of time but the wifi signal is alot better now and we can use the internet properly without waiting for 99+ hours to do a simple game-update on the PS5.

Does it come with Ethernet cables?

How does it do for gaming?

The '500Mbit' adaptor only has a 100base network port on it so you will never get faster than the port speed.

Powerline rocks. For me I would get 22-25mbps at best over wireless. With these I get 66mbps. ISP claims 60mbps.

it is 110V or 220V or BIVolt(110V & 220V)?

Do you think it'll make my wifi signal stronger I live in an apartment the router is in the living room and in my room I play Xbox it lags a lot when their watching movies or KZfaq in the living room on the ps4

Can you go 5 ghz with it?

Am I living in some kind of alternate universe? I ask because I'm ecstatic if I get over 10 mbps... and here's yet another person saying that 30 Mbps is "meh"... and not enough for streaming video (which we are still able to do at our more modest speeds).

Could you please explain how to get the wifi extender part to function? I've got the powerline to work, but am having trouble cloning!

I have an issue. I need to use something like this for my (ethernet) desktop pc which is quite a long way away from the router. I need fast speed to access secure websites like my bank. Will it work for this or do I have to run a cable? I can only find comments about running gaming devices.

does your electricity bill go up by using this method ? just a simple question. thanks...great video...and wall...

Are this need connect cable outlet wall???

I am using X-10 is that a problem.

can someone answer me? I got a 100/50mb internet, so if i do this and plug the wired cable on my PC will i get full speed ? it's important

You need to show the actual setup procedure. Why would you miss that out of such a highly detailed video review?

I have this unit and was working great for two months NOW it keeps saying that there is no internet connection ...Need help.

How far can you send signal across power line? Why/how is it only limited to just your house. You should be able to go to your neighbors house and it should still work. You could plug it in at work and take their signal home...

Wie muß es Leuten damit man weiß das es registriert is mit den WLAN ? danke

ask if this unit can rich 400meters away from my home

hey i was wondering if i can use this to connect my pc to the internet using Ethernet like plug the cable into the smaller unit and the other end into my pc?

Can I leave it in my ps4 everyday when its off and will it affect it or not

I just bought the Av500 starter kit (TL-PA4010KIT), and it works great. Easy to step-up and use. My wifi signal was giving me 8-14 MB. Now, with the powerline, I'm getting ~50 MB, and no lag when playing games ~23 ping. However, the adapter on the outlet does get pretty warm.. is this normal? Will it overheat?

dont use new (house wall plugs if u have a mix of new and old wall plugs) first time/setup ur plugs my not be connected/on ur fuse board to one another start with old/old plug pairs too test ur speed then u could mix/match my new wall plug was killing my speed hope this helps u

Does the WiFi extender function use existing WiFi signals or the Ethernet to repeat the signal?

Nice vid I wish I could show off with 800mb/S lol I have 7-8 Mb/S

How do I access that webpage? I tried the address in the url bar there but it doesn't work.

I'm not sure if I've done it right it works for my Xbox one however on my iPhone 6s and iPad shows the 3 bar but says no internet when I'm on Instagram someone please help

holy crap! nobody gets 800-900 mbps! lots of ppl are lucky to get 50mbps! i have a cheapo Belkin Router with a range of 300 and have 3 Alexa's and13 other devices connected plus a Desktop and tablet connected with NO Distance or Strength problems! i can go a 100 yds down the road and still have good signal strength and you cannot reach your bedroom? something is wrong with your setup! today i just added a Nexx Garage door controller and it is still kicking! TP Link is a great product! all my Alexis devices are TP Link!

My dilemma is that I am able to get a good Wi-Fi signal using my phone as a Hotspot. But I am not able to share the same network so that both computers/ tablets etc can talk to each other while I am using my hotspot. Would this device help me share the same network connection between my electronic devices?

does my router also have to be from tp link for this to work?

hey i have a ps4 and it is in my room and wifi keeps dropping will this help.?

does this work if i plug the first piece into the router and the other piece into an outlet at another house?

So does this pretty much mean ur playing Ethernet while Having wifi? Or am I getting something wrong

But you didn't show me how to connect the cable to the router and where to

Is this wifi adapter good with PC Gaming, like Battlefield 3 ,TF2,Minecraft on Online?

Can I used it outside in the barn?

mine disconnects multiple times a day. is that normal? does anyone have one of these that doesn't cause consistent disruption?

Speed depends on the QUALITY of the wiring too.

Hello, i bought this 2 weeks ago and now im net getting further, i set it up like the Manual told me. But now i have TWO Networks but i want only 1 can somebody please help me?

I pay for 100mbps with these i get around 80-90mbps

Does this create a separate hotspot for wifi?
