Are base units interchangeable?

2021-10-12 16:02:05

Model: TL-WPA8631P KIT

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

I have two PCs upstairs in the office. Neither has WiFi. Therefore I need 2-3 Ethernet ports upstairs.

Therefore I'd like to know what setup will allow me to have two Ethernet connections upstairs.

Do I need to buy two TL-WPA8631P's? or can I use the TL-WPA8631P Kit, with the single connection downstairs?

One TL-WPA8631KIT should be good if you could stretch the Ethernet cables to upstairs computers.

TL- WPA8631P powerline unit has 3 Ethernet ports, if could provide internet for 3 devices at that same time through wired connection.

Note that main unit and extender unit need to be paired in same powerline/ under the same power meter.
