Q: How do I get additional plugs? How many can be connected? What is the part number for the plugs?
A: You can add up to 16 of the AV1000 class devices on one network, provided they can all talk to one another of course. You will slice up the 1Gb/s bandwidth for each device, so the more nodes you add, the less throughput you have for each.
A: Hi! Powerline connectivity and data transfer rates will vary due to network environment variables including: distance between adapters, network traffic, noise on electrical wires, building material and construction, quality of electrical installation and other adverse conditions. First, please ensure both Powerline adapters are plugged directly into wall outlets - no surge protectors or power strips as these will directly interfere with the connection. We recommend following the suggestions outlined in FAQ 409 on our official website: https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/409/ If you'd like assistance with any of these steps, please reach out to our free support team using any of the resources included with the product, or from our official website, and we'll gladly have a Support Agent follow up with you directly. Thank you, TP-Link Support
Q: Does this kit come with ethernet cables for connection to devices?
A: Mine came with a 6-ft Cat5e cable for each end.
A: Hi! If you have an existing router, and if the router has multiple LAN/Ethernet ports, you can connect a Wi-Fi access point (or another router that supports Access Point Mode) to your router via Ethernet cable to provide your home network with Wi-Fi. Please note that the specific product model you asked this question on (TL-PA7017 KIT) does not provide Wi-Fi. It is designed to expand Ethernet (wired) coverage using the existing electrical wiring in your home.
Q: Will a land line work with this?
A: No. This is strictly for Ethernet cables.
Q: How good is it on gaming consoles
A: Powerline connectivity and data transfer rates will vary due to network environment variables including: distance between adapters, network traffic, noise on electrical wires, building material and construction, quality of electrical installation and other adverse conditions. First, please ensure both Powerline adapters are plugged directly into wall outlets - no surge protectors or power strips as these will directly interfere with the connection. We recommend following the suggestions outlined in FAQ 409 on our official website: https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/409/
Q: Can I switch a wifi ap to a a Tl-PA 7017?
A: Yes, you can connect virtually any Ethernet-based network device to the Powerline adapter that is installed at the remote location. You can essentially view the two adapters as replacing the role of a long Ethernet cable from point A to point B.
Q: Can these devices be used on smart TV's, or any TV with an ethernet port?
A: Yes absolutely
