AV600 powerline adapter overheats

2019-07-28 06:29:27

Model: Adapter

Hardware Version: V3

Firmware Version:

My AV600 (TL-PA4010 V3) adapter gets very hot and disables itself.

It gets better when disabling "power save mode" but still happens occasionally.

Can anything else be done about it or is there a new firmware version coming? Speed drops seem like a better solution than disabling the connection altogether when it gets hot.

Thanks

@EladK

First, as an electrical device and a network expansion device, it will produce heat. Below is the spec:

Environment	Operating Temperature: 0~40 (32~104) Storage Temperature: -40~70 (-40~158) Operating Humidity: 10%~90% non-condensing Storage Humidity: 5%~90% non-condensing

Please locate it in an open and ventilated area.

Besides, you can use the tpPLC utility to check the firmware. https://www.tp-link.com/support/download/tl-pa4010-kit/#Utility

Below is the download link of the firmware: https://www.tp-link.com/support/download/tl-pa4010-kit/#Firmware
