amazing video !!! congrats

This video didn’t age well. Just kidding but seriously my mind is blown that TP-Link has a switch that doesn’t require external power and it doesn’t require PoE. It can run off of the normal tiny bit of power that’s carried over the

Whatsa roota? 😀

Vid is very informative. Only thing I'd like to add from personal experience working right at the 100m length with direct burial rated cable that you must crimp your own ends. I can't stress enough how important it will be to your sanity to invest in name brand crimper tools and name brand connectors. In my case Klein brand passthrough connectors and crimping tool finally fixed an intermittent dropout problem that caused me much headache using cheap crimpers and connectors. It's one of the few tools I believe in buying high end now. Again, great video otherwise.

If my internet is running 100ms will this make it a lot faster during gaming?

Excellent review. I live in an apartment, does it work well if I had to connect it in my garage which is circa four storeys down?

I’m a trucker. Do you have any recommendations for a specific hotspot I can buy that I can game on while away from home?

👍

An "Uplink Port" is Just Like any Other Port, However FASTER. On Switches The Faster: 10 Gig SFP+, Ports, Aren't Usually Called UPLINK. However, they're Used to Connect, To Other Switches. An "Uplink Port" is Just Like any Other Port, However FASTER. It Aggregates Devices Behind it. You Might Have 20 Computers Connected To a Switch in 1 Building and Another 20 Computers, Connected To a Switch in Another Building. The Two Switches are Connected Together Using the Faster 10 Gig SFP+, Ports. Connecting All 40 Computers. An "Uplink Port" is Just Like any Other Port, However FASTER. On a Router, These Faster Ports Are Called "UPLINK". 40 Computers and Slower Gigabit Ports, Will All Have To Aggregate and Use the FASTER "UPLINK" Ports. An "Uplink Port" is Just Like any Other Port, However FASTER. You Dont Have To Use The Faster UPLINK Ports on a Router to Connect To the Internet. You Can, Use any Other Ordinary Port and Set-Up Routing, Layer-3 Switching on Them. However, 40 Computers Will Then Have To Squeeze, through a Narrower Pipe. An "Uplink Port" is Just Like any Other Port, However FASTER. On a Switch: The Faster SFP+ Aren't Called "Uplink", because Switches: Cross Connect Computers and Devices. Cross Connected Computers and Devices, Can ALL Talk to Each Other. A Router: (A Router on a Stick) - Doesn't Cross Connect, Computers and Devices. The Computers and Devices, behind a Router: They Ask the Router, To Fetch Data for Them. (e.g. Using NAT: Network Address Translation). They Aren't Cross Connected to Computers, On the OTHER Side of the Router.

Theoretically speaking endless as long as your cable is long enough

Quantum Fiber (USA ISP) 360 wifi mesh pod system is horrible for gaming, i have insaine ping spikes usually every 30-60 seconds going from 66ms all the way up to 800ms spikes, and its infuriating. Ill be saving for a good wifi 6e router to replace the mesh system given to me by my isp, since i dont want to start another house project of running ethernet drops to every room.

Explanation of what to do in Geek Jargon is too fast and the CMD window you display is too small to see what to type. It may be a doddle, like a second lingo but not for the regular or intermediate joe.

It's likely me but you talk so fast... this is really useful for someone who hasn't got a clue but I still don't understand it all.

I would love if Chris can do it for visual people. I don’t understand. Pictures would be useful.

Great video worked straight away thanks

I have tried the TP Link AV 600. I needed to extend to my metal garage 120 feet behind my house. It worked intermittently at best and only on a clear day with the door OPEN to my garage.... I was also using it for wasted my money! Now I'm looking again...

I was going to buy one of these as I need to iprove the wifi that is coming into my studio room. The studio is across the garden outside of the main house. It has it's own fuse box in it so does that mean it wouldnt work? The router is in the main house. If you (or anyone in the coments who knows) could let me know that'll be ideal. I have an Ethernet lead that is long enough to go from the house to the studio, so I could hardwire my desktop, but then I'll still have the same issues regarding the weak wifi reaching my Macbook, tablet etc. If this won't suffice, then it there some sort of aerial that I can simply connect via the ethernet lead, that will just boost the signal in the studio room? Cheers

Hi I have bought this kit, I understand the smaller unit goes into my wifi router with cable, and the larger unit into a normal electric socket and the wifi signal goes through the electric circuit. So I will plug this in the kitchen on an exterior facing wall as I have a wireless battery operated spotlight camera out there. But I also have an add on wireless camera on the summerhouse about 50 ft away from main house but still has electric power provided by same circuit/fuse board. Which add on extender do I need to buy to plug in in the summerhouse to get this add on wireless camera to work please ? Both cameras use lithium non rechargeable batteries which should last 2 years but feed back says only really last 1 year but because of the weak wifi signal they are flat in 36 hours 🙄😤 so I am hoping this system through the electric circuit will solve the problems.

Does the part where you mention adding 28 bytes to the maximum packet size that doesn't require fragmentation apply if you are ONLY using this router for VPN traffic? I ask because the maximum packet size that pings through the VPN without fragmentation is 1472. This plus 28 equals 1500 which is the router default. So I would just leave it at the default?

1472 + 28 = 1500... Huh.

Thank you 😊

Multiple switches are normally used when dealing with a server lab environment. Most servers will have multiple Ethernet ports. Running them all to a single switch is not recommended. Running them to multiple switches is called redundancy. If one switch port goes bad, you will still have the other port, plus the other switch and it's Ports. This is if you have two cables going to each switch, on a 4 port Ethernet card installed in your server. I have two 18 port switches and one is nearly full while the other is half full. Plus a wireless router running all other devices.

Awesome information. Thanks.

If compare a shorter ethernet cable than 100 meters is it the internet speed the same?

Can these be used on older tvs to cast content and apps from my mobile phone?

If placed in a laundry room with the main electrical panel, washer and dryer, I'm wondering if the wifi signal ricochets off of the metal objects making the signal even worse. Any thoughts?

For the mstep test today at my school we ran out of ip addresses I think it’s all a single subnet also.

video would have been better if instead of just verbally instructing how, you could ve shown us practically using a screen recorder or something .

WHATS A ROOTER

Done everything right. All the lights are on but the TP-Link address does not show up on our devices. Any thoughts?

Hiya, can I pair a netgear an tp-link adapter or do they need to be the same brand? Grate video tutorial too, clear an to the point 🎉

to the point.... well done...... concise

Everyone at home use back up disks or the cloud and nobody watch movies on a pc these days..smart tv's do the job.

How do we alter router channels? My router is defaulted to two channels 2.4ghz and 5ghz

Thank you! For some reason I thought these were the opposite. I thought a managed switch would be automatically managed and unmanaged I'd need to do it all myself.😂

Very helpful, thanks

Long story short: remove all appliances, mirrors, metal and electronics from your house for your WiFi to work best.

thank you

Does using an Ethernet cable disable your routers WiFi?

Bro really said 👉👈🖐️🖖✋🤚🫳✋👏🙌🫴🫳

If it was practically done would have been great, good presentation though

1472+28=1500... i just wasted 6 minutes of my life

Will the extender remember my Wi Fi network address and password as I unplug it and move it to its desired low single part of the house? I just bought the AV200 second-hand on eBay, to be honest it looks unused and I can see why. The instructions are totally useless. This is worse than Chinglish. There's a micro CD ROM that I cannot be bothered with and various contradicting written instructions, all claiming to be Quick Start guide.

Thanks ! Have a question , just purchased two sets of D-link DHP AV600 power line extenders, one extender connected by ethernet cable to my internet modem in the basement ( Telus 1 gig) two connected to two internet TV boxs and one to internet phone land line, I did this for better reception for phone and TV , however all three extensions show Ethernet light red and reception cuts off or is poor , if I disconnect two extenders , the one extender is on all three lights green , any tips to get all three extenders operating on green light? Thanks again.

Wish it was not so hard or destructive to install ethernet sockets in a UK house. US houses arw made of plywood more or less so its easier haha

@Clem_dow 0 seconds ago Hi Chris i'd like to combine the capabilities of a usb wifi adapter with the traditional storage capabilities of a usb. Is that possible? Could I get some guidance on how to do it, not a technical person. Thanks!

Well done. Great explanation

❤❤❤❤❤

Excellent information and explained perfectly. Now I know how to correctly connect my switch into my network….Cheers dude👍
