Low download/upload speed

Model: TL-PA411KIT  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: Latest

My ISP provides around 200 Mbps download speeds. I achieve this speed when my device is connected directly to the router with an ethernet cable.

My powerline rate is ~200 Mbps but the download/upload speeds cannot seem to go above 9Mbps. I have tried each of the steps of the troubleshooting guide but they do not solve the problem. Any suggestions for the problem?

thanks

@Jbroni 

From  the powerline rate,  the actual speed is pretty slow.

When Router < Ethernet cable #1  >PA411......... PA411  < Ethernet cable #2  > PC: 

  • Make sure both Ethernet cables are cat5or above, should support 100Mbps
  • Check the wired link speed between PA411 and PC , it should 100Mbps, not 10Mbps.

 (How to check the associated/link speed on a wired client)  https://www.tp-link.com/support/faq/2899/

  • Check the if router's LAN port is on 100Mbps if you could check the port speed on router interface * Try a newer a cable between router and main adapter
  • Try a different wall socket for the extender unit or main unit one by one and see if that helps

May I know when router --PC , how much speed you could get? If locate PA411 closer in the same room, will the speed improves, when did you buy the KIT and did it work fine before?
