Model: TL-PA4010  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I have an AV500 PA4010P set up bought a 2/3  years ago - comprises two plug in adaptors.  I would like to extend the wifi further in the house and into a new garden room which has power.  Can I simply buy more adaptors and just plug them in to the mains sockets?  And if so what model should i buy?  Or do I need to start again with new kit?  Any help gratefully received. Thanks.  Rick

Hi,

 

All the TP-Link powerline adapters are compatible with each other. 

 

If you want to add another  powerline adapter into the current 4010, it is suggested to buy a 4 series, like TL-WPA4220, TL-WPA4226. 

https://www.tp-link.com/home-networking/powerline/

Note: The mode starts with TL-WPAxx supports wifi function, while TL-PAXXX does not.

 

And you only need press the pair button  to add the new unit.

 

Instruction as below:

Good day.

I see that this thread is 2019. Can I just check that it is still true that all powerline devices are compatible? I have been using two AV200+ for many years - is it really the case that I can buy two new adaptors and they will work with those old AV200+ ?
