Model: TL-WPA4220  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I just  bought WPA4220 TKIT as it uses PA4010. I set up via wps so I could clone router ID & Password and it worked fine until tried to pair the 4010 V3 with older 4010s V(uk)1.2s, which worked but the 2 extenders stopped linking to the 4010 v3.

 

I had to reset all the new kit to get extenders to work but I still need to use several 4010s to provide ethernet connections to the router for other devices via the 4010V3. Is there a way?

Hello @ptrhbd 
They are compatible. For powerline compatibility, please check this instruction for more details: How can I select the powerline device?

 

As we do not want to mess up the working kit when add the new powerline unit, I suggest pairing the extra unit one by one with one of the working unit. 

Please add extra powerline unit into existing powerline network by pair button, referring to the instruction:
https://www.tp-link.com/support/faq/1081/

Note:  press Pair button only for 1 sec, Power Leds should be flashing on both powerline units in pairing process. ( if the Power Led does not blink, press it for 1 sec again) When the Powerline Led or House Leds are on, the pairing process is done.

 

If you have tpPLC Utlity installed, please refer to this instruction to pair the powerline units/ add an extra powerline unit by Powerline Key:
