Advice before buying a TL-WPA271 Wireless N Powerline Extender
Region : UnitedKingdom
Model : TL-WPA281
Hardware Version : V1

Region : UK
Model : TL-WPA271
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version :
ISP : UPC
I have an existing setup with WiFi and BT HomePlug in combination. The HomePlugs are the Simpler Networks models. This all works fine.
I need to improve the WiFi signal in another part of the house, and also get a Sky+ TV box that is there onto the internet via CAT5.
So I was wondering:
Will the TL-WPA271 interoperate with the existing powerline network?
If it does, will it extend the WiFi range either via the powerline network or the existing weak WiFi signal?
Can I run a CAT5 cable from the TL-WPA271 into the Sky+ box to get that on the network?
Thanks
