Model: Deco X50  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1

Hi,

 

I'm thinking of purchasing the X50 to create a network across two flats that each have their own individual power networks.

 

There is a thick concrete wall in both houses that the only way to bypass seems to be via a powerline. Would the following setup work

 

Router --> Powerline Unit 1 (Flat 1) ---> Powerline Unit 2 (Flat 1) (other side of thick wall) --> Main Deco X50 ---> Other Deco Units --> Powerline Unit 3 (Flat 2)  ---> Powerline Unit 4 (otherside of thick wall in Flat 2)

 

Thanks

  @kez88 Hi, welcome to the community.

I noticed you mentioned that each flat has its own individual power networks. Do you mean they are on different electric meters since powerline units need to work under the same electric meter? Other than that, I think Deco X50 would be working fine.

Thank you very much. 

Best regards.

thanks David yes they are on different meters. So I'm effectively using the deco to link the two 

 

maybe the picture below helps

Hi, Thank you for the message.

It will work and Deco needs to be set to access point mode.

If you do not want to use access point mode, the layout could be adjusted a little bit:

router--Deco1--powerline1~~~powerline2---Deco 2.
