Model: Deco M4  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.5.0

I've a Deco M4 Mesh system in the house for quite a while. I've bought a POWERLINE TPLINK TL-PA7017P today and the idea it's to improve the signal on the remote Deco M4 tower. I'm seeing no difference between before and after using the powerline, is there any limitation? Any trick?

 

Thanks

Check signal source on remote Deco M4 that you have connected through powerline adapter. You can do that in Deco app.

 

If you see this, it means Deco M4 uses powerline for backhaul (my Main Deco is named Living Room, yours may be different):

 

 

But if you see this, your Deco M4 does not use powerline connection, and still connects by WiFi:
