TP-Link TL-WPA7617 KIT AV1000 Powerline Adapter, AC1200 Dual Band WiFi Extender, Gigabit Ethernet, HomePlug AV2, Powerline WiFi Kit, Ethernet Over Power, WiFi Booster for Home

The powerline functionality is the best to reduce latency and other issues faced during gaming. I experience no lag or disconnection issue generally seen with WiFi. The app is easy to use with instruction and easy setup. Extender functionality is an added bonus and stronger than most WiFi routers

Installed 50 meters away in a hut and the WiFi is amazing! Working brilliantly.

These work very well in houses where WiFi signals have issues due to brick walls and other obstacles. They will work across different circuits with varying levels of success, from fairly good to ok for controlling lights . You need to try it and the connection does improve with time but can vary throughout the day depending on what electrical loads you have. I have had both TL- WPA8631P and TL-WPA7617 kits all working together but now only use the single Ethernet plug (to my WiFi router) and the two WiFi plugs (one with a mains socket and 3 Ethernet connections, one with just one ). The plug on the same mains circuit regularly gets over 180Mbs and connects our 4k tv plus tablets and phone back to the router (plume based). The other gets between 35 and 75Mbs and creates a bridge to the WiFi in my shed allowing me to stream audio or YouTube videos without issue as well as other ‘hard to reach’ network devices. The tpPLC app is useful for showing status and basic setting but changing any network settings will take you to a web interface which can be fiddly. The only reason you might want to do that is to block a device from connecting if the signal is strong but the connection not good enough, or to alter the WiFi power. Do not alter anything else otherwise it may not work properly. The WiFi plugs can appear on your Tether app if you use it but can be hit and miss. It is useful but doesn’t have the same configuration capabilities .

Really impressed with this powerline kit. were struggling with poor WiFi signal in parts of the house and this made a noticeable difference almost immediately. Setup was very simple — basically plug in, pair, and it was ready to go within minutes. Much easier than running long ethernet cables or trying multiple WiFi boosters that never seemed reliable. Connection has been stable for streaming, video calls, and general everyday use, even in rooms that previously had weak coverage. The passthrough socket is also useful because you don’t lose a plug socket completely. Obviously performance will depend a bit on your home wiring, but for us it worked far better than expected and has made the internet much more reliable around the house.

I purchased these 7 months ago as I moved to a house with a home office at the end of a garden some 30metres away from the house where the standard Sky wifi would not reach. I know very little about these but after a lot of research I decided to go for these powerline adapters. For 7 months, they worked great - enabled me to work from home, videocalling, downloading big files etc in my outdoor office. The wifi extender also means my entire garden has a good wifi coverage so anyone out and about still has a good signal. I also have a cctv in my office and Alexa - all works great. The adapters needed resetting few times, but only about 3-4 times max in the past 7 months. IN the last week, they however stopped working altogether. No idea why, contacted the manufacturer, they werent very helpful in finding the issue but they told me to speak with Amazon. Luckily Amazon sent out a replacement without any issues, even after the time. Just set up the replacement - all seems good so hoping these will last a lot longer than 7 months.

Had really poor wifi in my house due to lots of internal solid walls/distance from router and wanted a cost effective way of getting a better signal towards the back of the house. I think you need decent electricals, fortunately my house was recently re-wired and it paid off as this works way better than I expected. Easy to set up, quadruples the wifi speed in my dining room, and has worked reliably for about 6 weeks now. Can't fault it.

Thanks ! Straight forward and suited me just well.
