Model: Deco  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version:

I am considering purchasing the Deco x20, but I am not sure if it can be used with the pre-existing power line adapters in my home. Here is a diagram of my ideal set up, will it work? Thanks!

Yes it should work, 

 

I suggest you disable the wifi on the A7 and use it as a simple switch.

 

And make sure the link rate between the powerline adapters is as good as if you use the wireless backhaul between the Decos. Sometines it is not, depending of your electrical installation.

Alright, thanks for the reply. There is a fair amount of concrete In between so I'll use the powerline just in case. Anyway I think the router will switch to the fastest config. I'll off the A7 wifi, when I set up the deco. Thxx

Hello, Where did you take the information that the Deco "will take the best config" ? It is not the case, at least for the M5 : as soon as an Ethernet backhaul is connected, backhaul will only be Ethernet, whatever the speed is compared to wifi. I do not know about the X20 but i doubt it is different. I suggest you get an official answer from TP Link!

@Bobrovsky I use X20 - 3 pack. From Main, it is connected to one of the slave node via Power line 1GB. Once it is conencted, Deco App sees that link as Ethernet and automatically disable Wireless link.

Olá, Tenho a mesma situação mas no caso gostava de saber se o ultimo Deco ligado através de powerline continua a emitir sinal wifi? Obrigado
