a quick question sir, does it only work in one house? what if i try to use two powerline ethernet adapter on two adjacent houses?
@@febiusrian2730 It won't work and if it does, it would be super slow
This is how videos need to be made. Clear and simple explanation which anyone can understand.
An outstanding presentation that covered everything regarding the installation and performance of the AV1000. You even included a correct explanation of the powerstrip vs pass thru multioutlet connector. Great job!
Excellent presentation- clear and extremely educational. Well done! I have been using this Powerline AV1000 network extender and they have performed flawlessly for me in connecting my modem in the basement to my main computer and wireless router upstairs. I have a third module on the mid-floor connected to my Roku.
Glad it was helpful!
This video is more informative than the others I've looked at.
Thank you for making this video, it is very clear and will explained!
If only more information videos are as straightforward and easy to follow as this!
Thanks for this amazing demo..Much appreciate 🙏
Excellent comparison segment
Very useful. Thanks for sharing!
Excellent video. Clear and comprehensive ❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
A very informative and helpful video. It takes a very practical approach. Well done and keep up your good work.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video. Thank you. The most informative part of this video - which others didn't bother to cover was the part about using a "dumb" power lead to connect to. in time, will buy from your link.
Glad you liked it
Thanks for the great video, excellent explanation for a novice
Right to the point! Thank you! 😊
Excellent video! I really appreciate the comparison with an Ethernet direct to the TV from the router. I think I will buy one of these for online gaming.
Glad it was helpful!
Nice straightforward video 👌🏽

...and his expectations/application so measured. GOOD STUFF!
TY to this Channel Creator for not being a shill like TOOO many on UA-cam, or the rosy sounding Marketing Depts of Manufacturers/Liers.
Forget game streaming/high speed NAS, this is a 4K Netflix fix _for which vid buffering WILL smooth over a network glitch or two_ : This is not a reliable, low-latency network interface suitable for all applications. Run it across circuit breakers on old wiring, and it might not even be 'nuf for 4K Netflix - depends on the house.
Great video, very helpful. Thank you my friend.
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome video ! Very informative! Thank you!
Thanks for the info! i love your content!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you... I really appreciated for the video tutorial!
You're very welcome!
Just got this yesterday from amazon. I am really enjoying to connect to my Nas on 2ns floor to 3rd floor as wifi was too slow and didn't want to run ethernet direct
Great video.
Great video thanks 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
I'm using the powerline on a surge protection board and it is working. not sure if it is any slower but it is working.
Thanks for the info
Good Job bro
Great video my friend. Straight to the point👍
Glad you liked it
Liked...Good informative video!
A question. Can you connect 2 printers to same network using 2 additional TP Link AV1000 Powerline Ethernet adapter?
Yes
Does this require the router to be there? Can I directly connect this device to the ONT with an ethernet cable
?
I have one plugged into a power strip and still get internet. You can use power strip without a filter and it will work without any problems.
how do i turn of the power saving mode
thank you for the useful video.. also keep in mind that you router should also support gigabit speed through lan cable otherwise you will be limited to 100 mbit speed
Sup bro so I want stay in the garage that's not to far from the route and house if I get this I normally got 150mps upload speed thorough lan cord to pc will I get the same speed outside in the garage for gamming?
On my phone I get 200mps upload speed
@@honethompson-rameka3747 hi hone you will not get the same speed as you get it from your isp can be interfere if the powerline is not on the same circuit and also depends on how old is your elec wiring is.. powerline is cheap you can try it but nothing more stable than straight lan cable to your garage to get the most out of your internet speeds..cheers
I’ve been living in an old apartment with no ethernet ports in the walls and have been using xfinity’s public hotspot with my login to have wifi at my place. Will this product work for me? Just stick it into the modem I got from the store and voila I have my own internet finally?
Are these recommended for nbn?
Hi, what's the best CAT cables to use? My TP Link AV1000 keeps dropping out. I'm using Cat 5e - should I be using 6? Thanks.
Cat 5e should be good. Maybe you have a faulty cable?
Hooked everything up but the one im connecting to my ps5 is blinking on the middle light help?
Will these work from Basement to Main Floor? ( Speeds may be slower ) but will it work and not disconnect?
Great video and thank you. I actually have both of these routers. The Asus is far superior and will be my Principle router. I am going to try your setup so I can extend the signal. I am wondering if the SSID and Password on the Dlink can be the same as the Asus? That way we can log in from anywhere. Thank you for your help.....
Thanks. I think you're talking about this video: ua-cam.com/video/2MT0O2--iKM/v-deo.html
You can use the same SSID but it is not recommended. In short, the device searches for a WIFI connection without looking at the strength of the signal so it might connect to the weaker signal but, if you have different SSIDs, you can choose to which one to connect depending on your location.
if the connection is an rj45 is that not limited to 100mbps as opposed to an rj46 connection
Hi one quick question. Can we connect the main transmitter to the main router wirelessly also or we have to connect via LAN only?
Via Lan only
Great video. One of my main questions relates to ping/latency, does using these powerline adapters provide more stable latency than wifi?. I enjoy videogames and spikes in latency can be quite bad.
I have one and it’s fine 25ms Average
using wifi i had constant ping spikes while trying to play or download anything on my pc. using these powerline adapters it's rock solid and i get the full internet speed i pay for which is 75mbps.
Hi iv just got a one of these the av1000 and it works great for upstairs. One question i got if i buy another av1000 will i be able to pair the 2 new ones with with the the 2 i already have so il have 3 running from it from different rooms ? Cheers
Yes you can
I want to use for my Ethernet camera on my Shade, has same Phase (power sharing from same Bus) but different circuit (breaker), will it work for?
It will work but it might be slower then what it should be
in my case, the powerline pair sometimes give full speed but at other times the speed drops drastically, my internet speed is 50 Mbps via LAN I always get full speed, but via the powerline adapter the speed sometimes drops to 23-23 Mbps, what's the problem, I plug it in directly to the power outlet, no power bar
It might be interference on the line
Quick question, this does help with increasing the wifi strength all around the home right?
No, this is only to provide connection to one device.
How do we ensure that we are connecting them on the same electrical circuit. Please advice 😢
You can look at the breakers' board in your house. Each breaker controls a power circuit. Connect the devices to power outlets that will turn off/on with one breaker.
My house has 2 MCB if one is plugged to 1st MCB and another to 2nd MCB will it communicate?
It will work but it will not give its full potential.
I think these powerlines need straight power lines to work at full speed, when used on powerlines with complicated routes, it will slow down the internet connection between powerlines
I am using somewhat powdered line adapter but getting only 40 mb speed but my internet is above 200 mb speed when connected directly to router. Switching to these will get me router speed? Thanks
Make sure you are plugging the Powerline adaptors in the same power circuit
Good vid.. so i don’t have to keep the socket next to it free?
What do you mean!
Can the second plug be used as a wifi extender instead of a Ethernet cable?
Not in this model but this one has this capability: amzn.to/3OUSAho
Do you think if use a cat 8 cable will boost the speed?
No it won't
I just upgraded to 2 gig internet in my house and wonder if this can reliably transmit 2 gig internet?
No, this is limited to 1Gbs, go with the AV2000
Hello, I've got a question, can I use an adapter as the tp link device does not fit in my power socket on the wall
I don’t see why not
@@KnowledgeSharingTech Okay thank you. I asked because I was afraid it might not work like how it didn't with the power extention box
Does this model have WiFi as well or only LAN extension?
Only Lan
I bought these plugs, my router speed is 350mb. My ps5 wireless connection is around 100-200mb. I connect these plugs for my ps5 via lan cable, but I test and only get 70mb max. I tried many methods like Ghz and even bought a cat6 cable but still nothing has changed. I need help.
Bro complaining about having good internet
It can be your house's electrical wiring or electrical noise
Also appliances can affect the speed
And also a cat 6 cable can limit it also
@@mehosadikovic6958 AFAIK cat 6 can transmit 1 gigabit
can the receiver be used wirelessly or does it have to be wired?
This model has to be wired, you have other models that can be used wirelessly like this one: amzn.to/4cBG3s0
Or can u use any sifi
does it work if you plug them into extension cords? right now, i am considering buying the same product as yours if you reply i would be grateful
You can but the people that sell the device recommend that you put it in a wall outlet
@@David47318 i bought the device and i am using it on the extension cord it works just perfect. People who sell the device say that because they think it might effect the connection quality but it didnt happen in my case. I am very satisfied with the device and thank you for your video.
@@realkiller882 this is not my video but you welcome 😂
@@David47318 oh sorry i didnt notice that .d
I was only able to get from 10mbps to just under 20 using this. How am I able to tell If I’m on the same power circuit? I was hoping to get anything over 30mbps at least.
How much is your Internet's download speed? Try the 2 devices near each other like on the same PowerBar and see if you get more than 20Mbs
check your circuit breaker
does the ethernet cables come with the adapter?
Yes
So im thinking on buying this, will it be good for gaming and 1440p streaming?
I don't see why not
@@KnowledgeSharingTech thanks for the feedback
What’s your ISP speed and what was the distance to the TV?
I got 250mbit/s connection speed. Can i use this powerline adapter and get all the speed or it will be limited to 100mbit/s?
It won't be limited to 100Mbps
@@KnowledgeSharingTech i've seen a lot of reviews and nobody got over 100Mbps :/ I need full speed because of my work
@@haxaweddings its not that huge of a difference tho
can you pair as many as you want?
The maximum is 8
Do u need tp link wifi to use this product answer pls
No, it works with any router
Ihave a 500MBS internet speed. Do you know if i would get similar eith this?
You should
How do you get these two connect on one circuit if it doesn’t work the way you showed ? I can only get all 3 lights green even after pairing
No. For every device connected at the same time divide that number into total internet speed to get what most likely speed powerline will emit. Then, divide how many devices is connected to the powerline output. That will be a ballpark number speed that device will be getting
i bought this i thought it was possible to connect phones and other hand held devices onto this but is that not possible
Tamjid, unless your phone has an ethernet connection (I've never seen one that does), no it's not possible. Any device you desire to use directly with an EoP adapter requires an ethernet NIC.
What you can do for wireless, however, is use this to plug in a Wireless Access Point in the room you would like to have better cellphone internet connectivity. This way, you could have a much better wifi signal depending on the building. To set it up, do like in this video except plug the side that he plugs into his TV into your Wireless Access Point instead. You can also buy hardware that does this all in one, like "NETGEAR Powerline 500 + WiFi Access Point (XWNB5201)".
If you mean, "can I charge my phone with this", the answer is no. You can't charge your phone with a EoP ethernet adapter, that's not what it's for.
Can you just plug it into a regular wall outlet instead of using those outlet things?
Yes
@@KnowledgeSharingTech okay thank you, ill let you know how it ends. 👍
I got the ethernet adapters, they work well and u explained it very well. I did what you did and it works. My only question is how do I get my upload speed faster because my download speed went up a bit but my upload is the same? (Please answer if you dont mind)
why does it have a pair button? what is the use of the pair button?
If for some reason they got unpaired and for adding another one
@@KnowledgeSharingTech If I set up this first time I don't need to press the pair button. I have a Netgear powerline adapter.
please make a video on port forwarding.
@@pauldaniel7302 It is on my list
I recently bought these adapters and even though I have a 1Gbps connection these adapters only work at maximum 100Mbps. If I connect the same ethernet cable I use for these adapters and the same ethernet card from my computer to my ISP router directly, it goes to full 1Gbps without any problem. This means these adapters don't work as they advertise even if they are of this model AV1000 (in the box says 1000Mbps) it will only go to 100Mbps. Disappointed, so be warned!
Its probably because you are not on the same power circuit, like that room is in a different circuit breaker than the other
Sounds like it could be your Ethernet cable
If you have CAT 5 ethernet it may be why it’s 100mbps
Get yourself CAT 6 or 7 it will be much better
@@simdevils how could yk if ur on the same power circuit
@@isaibustillos7293 if you turn off your breaker in a certain area if the both turn off they are in the same circuit
It could be your scheda di rete web Say It in italian
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.
How do you do this is it simple?
@@wilduni1574 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.
These cap out at terrible speeds though. They are only to be used if there is no other option.
Does anyone know if you can use two different pairs of adapters in the same house? 4x total, 2 different pairs (of same brand)
hey just to tell you that your IP address is shown in 3:38
I get like 60 mpbs💀
What is your internet speed?
Even my old AV600 is faster than this AV1000. You need to use proper cables cat6 or even better cat7... sometimes "tesco" quality cat6 is worse than a good quality cat5, get good cables! go in the local store and make them cut the length you need, buy the most expensive cable few $ per meter isn't a big price for 300-400Mbit instead of 93Mbit
Many televisions cap speed at 100mbs. They don't do gigabit. That is why good wireless usually beats out wired to a tv. I can test out at 410mb on wireless on my Roku tv but no more that 95mb wired. all other wired devices hit 440mb max I can get.
Fake device. In one socket set tpPLC utility shown speed 850 Mbit/s - it's maximum. Other socket in the same room 300 Mbit/s... Other room only 120 Mbit/s.
4:15 - you do realize that is the speed of the link between the TV itself and the adapter, NOT the connection speed between the two adapters throughout the power grid!. 🤦♂
To find out the connection speed of your TV through the power grid Ethernet adapters you need to test the Internet speed of your TV over the competing connection options..
I'm sorry to say, but you test the speed of a Gigabit powerline adaptor in your 100Mbps home network. That's a silly idea, you are measuring your local network speed. And that is 100Mbps, it's a quite slow. You should invest a little in a Gigabit routers/swithces/HUB's with CAT5a ethernet cable, this is not expensive in 2023.
The real question would be, can you get 1000Mbps with the powerline adaptor as they advertise it? Other comments say "very informative" - I say very non-informative. You checked that your powerline adaptor works/doesn't work, and you measured your own home WAN speed that I don't care. Other commenters are interested though.
Very strange my wifi 5ghz i can have 130Mb/s but with powerline up to 60Mb/s download... I read that maybe can be ethernet cable are not too good..i don't know it's worth it to buy new good cable or not?
How come in my ps5 wireless is faster than wired
Funny how the TV calls 10 mbps excellent but 93 mbps is just "good". lol
