    If you want to have a faster internet/transmission rate between the adapters, you need to pair your adapter with your modem via WPS button, in order to clone the WiFi name + the password. It works 10x faster since I have done that.

      @@jigify press the wps button on your wifi adapter and then within 2 minutes press the same wps button on your modem (in order to clone the wifi). Once done, you will basically have the same WiFi name (with the same password) on each floor and your basement and you will also increase the bandwidth rate between those devices, which means faster WiFi.

    Been using TP-Link Power Line adapters for years.. Perfect for renting, like we are. However, i see mixed reviews, some say all power line adapters when extending network must be from same manufacture, while other reviews say, you can mix and match (and the assumption they o on is "manufactures want to make it easy" doesn't hold much water i believe, however i'd like confirmation of this ...
    My theory on it must be from same manufacture is because when it comes to "pairing" them, each manufacture would have their own "AES-key" pair/value/blocks and you *will* defiantly run into trouble if using use mix and match Powline adapters, since *they* cannot guarantee it will work because they don't make those different ones.. I could be wrong, but that's just my assumption.
    To me , i believe its more " they just won't work at all' unless they are from same manufacture. Any insight to this? Manufactures would say "less likely" but i would say "they won't"

    I connect my pc directly to the wifi lan for games bc wifi is unreliable. Now we’re moving house my pc would be in the second floor of the house and the main router would be downstairs so a lan cable would not be possible. I was looking for solutions and ive seen some gl.inet portable routers and i was considering it as a fix until i saw this video. Im not very tech savvy so im undecided what to to get. Are poweline adapters much reliable compared to the gl.inet routers that ive seen? Honestly have no idea which one is better 😅

      I just replaced my aging 500Mpbs adapters and bought 3x gigabit ones... Since they come in pairs, one got left unused, mainly because i figured that was that was main bottle-neck transferring large files to my NAS.... I was expending a big boost, but i was wrong..... even after getting better Wi-Fi router, then i fugued it must be Wi-fi issue as well..... so technically i'm back in same boat as i was before (hooking Gigabit cable between NAS and laptop just to transfer huge files.)
      Its works, but ideally i'm still looking for all-in-one solution that i could use existing network... Somthing tells me i may have to drop Wifi on laptop for that
      I added the 3rd adapter origionally in the louge for AppleTV... It would be across circuit, so i get they'd bandwith reduction but it's still better than Wi-Fi.

      No, you need mesh network. That is the only way to convert a 200 mbps ethernet to make 100+ mbps wifi around all parts of your house. This type of solution is only good for one device where you are fine with lower speed but constant.

    Hi sorry, Im still confused with this, someone please help. So Im planning to buy this because I want to get ethernet cable in my room (which is far from the router). So are you saying that by plugging my router to the electric socket in this device automatically transmit internet to my house wiring? Or do i need to connect the first ethernet cable from my router to one of this device, and plug in the other one of this device in my room and connect the ethernet cable from there to the pc?

    The 2000mbps rating is pure marketing BS from TP-Link. Any AV2 compatible device would max out at 1200mbps link speed, which translates to 400mbps real speed max (Rule of thumb: the net speed is about 1/3 of the link speed).
    Besides, mbps is M*Bit* per second, not MByte! 1 Byte = 8 bits!
    Btw, you don't need to check the rating of the cables. Any cable sold after 2001 is gigabit capable, since they standardized the norm in 2001 and since then, Cat5 and Cat5e are *the same*.
    As for your speedtest, you might wanna check with the tpPLC utility whether MIMO is enabled or not. It seems like it is disabled in your case. You can usually get 200 Mbit/s net speed with these kits. One trick you could use is plugging the powerline adapters as far away as possible from your router and your PC using longer LAN cables, to make the distance between the 2 adapters as short as possible. For example, by using 2x5m LAN cables instead of 2x2m, you can easily gain 20 Mbit/s net speed!

    My ps5 downloads games faster on wifi. When I launch a game to start playing online I always I use the powerline adapter. I get that steady connection I need. COD MW3 was lag spiking severely when I played using my t mobile 5G internet. Every since I got that powerline adapter... connection been steady. I just cant download games with the adapter. They have to be downloaded on wifi.

    • @Jay-b2w1o
      @Jay-b2w1o 11 месяцев назад

      So would you say it's worth getting exempting the download speed? (i may not get your problem)
      And just to be clear how this works, you plug in a powerline near the router via wall socket then plug the powerline to my router via ethernet. Secondly find my preferred location for the second powerline (near my Xbox) and connect the two with ethernet?
      I'd consider myself good at COD MW3 but ping and lag is getting in my way 😭

      You could use 1 port for connecting straight to your pc and the other a tv. That is just one example. You could also use 1 port to connect to your pc and the other to a mesh system to gain Ethernet backhaul.
      Some would say, why have a mesh and powerline adapters? Well the mesh is providing the wifi for wifi devices like tablets, phones, Firestick for example. If you have the mesh nodes connected via Ethernet backhaul then you will get a faster connection between the nodes instead of them relying on wifi to pass data from node to node to node/router.
      You could also use the second port to connect to an Ethernet switch where you may need provide a hard-wired connection to multiple devices in 1 location, eg, TV, Playstation/XBOX, Nvidia Shield, Sound Bar, AVR.
      It is a very very useful feature to have available.

      It's not a terrible test at all. It does not matter the speed of the connection. If it can match the connection speed then great but if you rewatch the video, this is more of a test of the reliability of using this device compared to wifi. ie, packet loss, speed fluctuations which as you know, is critical for gaming.
      Thanks for your analogy, not really related to his test but from what I take from the video it is more about having a reliable and stable connection.
