Hi

I use a powerline adapter kit to attach an X-Box vis ethernet cable in my son's bedroom.

I would like to add a WiFi range extender upstairs as well.

If I buy a stand-alone extender unit will it connect to the existing set-up?

Which model(s) should I go for?

Thanks

Hi,

 

Do you have any powerline adapters now? If so, what is the model number? 

 

FYI, all the TP-Link powerline adapters are compatible with each other, if you want to buy a single extender unit, it need connect to the main router by cable to broadcast network. 

 

And the model begins with TL-WPAXXX supports wifi function.  https://www.tp-link.com/en/home-networking/powerline/ 

 

Good day.

I have the TL-PA451KIT at present which provides cable-linked service upstairs.

Want to add a WiFi extender unit only if possible to provide stronger WiFi signal upstairs as well

Hi,

 

Considering the current adapter is TL-PA451KIT, if you want to add a single extender into the existing network, the TL-WPA4220 is a good choice.

May it help, have a nice day.

@Bert03 

I have a  TL-PA9020P which works really well using one of my electrical circuits, but only has 2 wired connections. Does TP-Link not have a product that can link into the Powerline circuit, and extract and broadcast a Wi-fi signal from that?  If so, I'm a buyer.
