This video looks at the TP-Link TL-WPA4220 AV500 Powerline Extenders: How to Set Up the system. It is a simple process and when unboxed, simply plug in as the video shows and pair the devices.
I wanted to demonstrate how to set the system up as have recently bought these TP-Link Power Extenders and am very happy with it. Basically it enables us to get a strong Wi-Fi /hard wired connection anywhere in the house now as getting a good signal has been very difficult previously.
ABOUT THE TP-LINK TL-WPA4220 KIT
According to the manufacturer, the system can provide up to 500Mbps high speed data transmission and extend 300Mbps wireless connections. They go onto say, The TP-Link TL-WPA4220 enables you to extend the internet connection into every room at home. It uses the existing electrical circuitry in your house. The system has a unique WI-FI cloning so it will automatically copy the password and SSID already set up on your router. Note that Powerline adapters should be deployed on the same circuit and in set of two or more.
HOW TO SET UP TP-LINK WPA4220
The video shows two boxes as part of the TP Link set - the master device (black edges) and the extender (white box).
The master device is the entry point for the Ethernet cable connected to the router. The extender is the exit point for either a hard wired connection or WI-Fi connection or both.
As the video demonstrates, simply plug in the TP Link TL-WPA4220 AV500 master socket and press the pair button for a few seconds. Then plug in the extender socket and again press the pair button for a few seconds. It's as simple as that.
Please refer to manufacturers website for specific information.
Thanks for watching my video on the TP-Link TL-WPA4220AV500 Powerline Extenders: How to Set Up.

Thanks! Modern Tp-Link adaptors have Wi-Fi passwords on the plugs, too, not just on a card. I today added an AV500 plug to my existing AV600 setup ​- I pressed the button under, first, the AV600 master, then, under the AV500 plug (flashed a bit then linked) _while all were plugged in._ Pairing may be viable even with newer D-Link, Netgear, etc. adaptors but compatibility may vary and/or need some web searching.

I've watched three videos on these AV units but none of them show me where on the router the internet cable is connected that goes-to/comes-from the extender? Is it plugged in to any of the myriad ports on the back of the router or does the router have to pass through the extender?

Hello, been given one of these, would it be possible to plug in just the extender (without the master socket) plug in a ethernet cable and use it as a wifi extender that way? basically i have a Ethernet running down to a outhouse, but no wifi and wifi would be better for phones etc.

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.

How fast are TP-Link powerline extenders compared to a CAT 6 cable direct?
@npdr6476
@npdr6476 4 жыл бұрын
Cat 6 is useless at home. Cat 5/5e/6 all can work upto 1000 Mb. Theoretically you can achieve 1 Gb or more on powerline. I have AV500 devices, the measured speed is 250-330 Mb, the old AV 200 devices have 90-130 Mb. But the cheaper AV500/600 models have 10/100 connection, it limits them to 100 Mb. So be careful when buying: if you want a gigabit network buy AV2 adapters with 1000 or 1200 Mb.

Hi I’m using the t- link av500 but they are very very slow? I have them plugged into extension cables and not directly in the wall socket do you thing this could be the reason. Barry
@TheTechGuru
@TheTechGuru 5 жыл бұрын
Hi Barry. Thanks for your message. I've read somewhere before that powerline adapters will only work properly if plugged into wall sockets, not extension leads. So that could be the reason they are very slow. Thanks.

@TheTechGuru
@TheTechGuru 4 жыл бұрын
Hi. The layout in video is for demonstration purposes so can be a bit confusing i.e the extender shown on left hand side in video (AV500 appears on face) would normally be in another room. So to answer your question - you have a Ethernet cable which comes out from one of the ports on your router into the power line adapter (shown in video on right hand side with 500Mbps on face). The adapter which is shown in left of picture (AV500 appears on face) would normally be in another room with another Ethernet cable coming out of it and then this cable would plug into your PC/Laptop etc. Hope that helps. Thanks

you don’t explain the amount of these to use on ie, such as tv and computers and you need to bear in mind some ppl don’t know what these thing are capable of doing. i think you should have set up the bedroom extender with a smart tv or some other device so complete novices can grasp it.

Useless, my dog knows more about tech than this clown. “Wi-Fi flashing because erm it’s working”. No it’s flashing like this because you haven’t cloned the WiFi from your router.
