TP-Link PGW2440 KIT Advanced Protocol G.hn2400 Powerline Adapter, AX1800Mbps WiFi 6 Internet Booster KIT, Extra Power Socket, 2+1 Gigabit Ethernet Ports, 8K Streaming & Gaming, Plug & Play

Great product, easy set up

Works great - If this is all you need Bough this back in the Amazon spring sale, had a quick look figured it was what I needed to add internet capability to the garden room I'm getting built in the summer. Finally got round to setting it up yesterday. Couldn't be easier, plugged the appropriate bits in to my router and put the extender end in the garden shed - Brilliant I now have around 500 Mbps where previous I could barely pick up the house wifi and was getting about a hundredth of that. Next step - order another extender - The instructions clearly show how to connect multiple units to cover a large area. Part number fine PGW2440 is what I need. Type that into the amazon search box. Returns a huge selection of adapters, inclining this kit. However none of the others are what I need. After a few minutes I search else where. Increasing confusion ensues. Eventually I come across an Entry on the TP-Link bulletin board, where many others have found that same problem. One had an official response from TP-Link confirming that additional extenders are not available separately. The only way to obtain one is apparently to buy another kit and bin the adapter. WTF!!!!! Maybe something else will work with it who knows? The internet is unclear. I would probably send it back, but I'm past the 30 day return period, and what I DO have works great. Absolutely F---ing ridiculous policy.

So far working fine, stable connection between the two units. I'm updating this review two months later, and have still had zero issues with this - it's been powered on non-stop. The down side is that you seem to only be able to buy these as a pair. Which makes adding an additional WiFi access points both expensive and wasteful. Hopefully TP Link will rectify this soon (or more second hand ones will start becoming available!). I had another issue, which is not the fault of this unit, but worth considering as I've seen it before: My ~2yr Dell XPS laptop (with Intel WiFi - the same as used by many manufacturers) decided it liked WiFi 6 much better then my main router's WiFi 5. That meant that the laptop kept trying to connect to the WiFi 6 signal from this TP-Link unit even if I was only a couple of metres away from the router itself! I came up with two solutions to this problem: Firstly, using the "tp plc" app on my phone, I changed the signal strength of the PGW2440 WiFi access point down so the laptop couldn't pick it up from the room with the router in, and I persuaded my ISP to give me a free router upgrade to one that did WiFi 6 - so now I only have WiFi 6 everywhere. Frustrating that it wasn't possible to fix it with a setting on the laptop itself (it feels like the "prefer WiFi 6 at all costs" setting is baked into the Intel WiFi driver/hardware) but hopefully that'll be useful for somebody!

Daughter has gone away to University so her room now doubles as my home office. Until I realised how awful the WiFi was in there. The TP link Power line / WiFi adapter, resolved that simply. Needed a hub to create extra LAN ports on my router. Have one unit plugged in next to the Router on the downstairs ring. Second plugged into the Upstairs ring and it works a charm. As the WiFi on the adapter is higher spec than the router I get a faster connection on average in the Office now. Didn't do this for a while because I though the fact the sockets upstairs and downstairs are on separate rings would affect it. Very happy with this.

I find it rather disappointing that TP-Link has chosen not to sell their WiFi extenders, specifically model PGW2440, as standalone products. Instead, the only way to expand your network coverage is by investing in an entire new kit, which feels quite frustrating for many users. During my exploration of the TP-Link forum, I stumbled upon a multitude of threads where users expressed their frustrations and dissatisfaction regarding this limitation. Many loyal customers, including myself, have invested in a variety of TP-Link devices and prefer to maintain a cohesive system with a brand they trust. Regrettably, it appears that TP-Link has overlooked a significant opportunity to cater to the needs and preferences of its customer base. On the performance side, the functionality of the extenders is commendable, displaying reliable signal strength and straightforward wireless connectivity. However, I’ve noticed that the units tend to run hot, generating a considerable amount of heat during operation. Additionally, their bulkiness can pose a challenge, as they may struggle to fit comfortably in certain locations. The accompanying app does provide basic functions for managing the devices, but it could benefit from a more modern interface and refresh to enhance user experience. Nonetheless, it meets essential requirements, such as facilitating firmware updates, which is a fundamental feature for maintaining optimal performance.

Works well - even over 50 year old wiring. Simple plug and play, worked first time and so far is proving reliable and robust

I wish this product worked. It is well built and I loved the WiFi 6. Currently using an av600 from tplink. However my line got noisier due to an unexpected appliance. G.hn protocol maybe a good solution but tp link has serious packet loss issues even on the best of lines. My network wiring is pretty new and I put both devices on the same circuit. Still any small amount of I/o can create packet loss. Not an issue if you are downloading stuff. But awful for calls even worse video calls, vpn or remote terminal servers. No setting will fix this. Firmware not upgraded since 2023. A pity as I said I wished to keep this device as it solved many problems on paper. Av600 reinstalled and it works better when the appliance is off. I think that I can live with that for now. Fix it please this is a very expensive item

attention prises anglaises

Not as powerfull as expected for the price and is bulky
