AV1000 slower than AV600
I have been using the tp-link AV600 for many months and got around 40-50Mbps when downloading games on PC. Today I purchased AV1000 (TL-PA7017 Kit) expecting to get better download speed however it's the same if not worse than the AV600.
I peaked 61.9Mbps with AV600 and right now I'm struggling to stay over 50Mbps with AV1000. Both are plugged into the wall socket and I have 500MB/s internet.
Hopefully someone can help?

Hi, thanks for posting question here.
AV600/AV1000 is not the actual speed but the maximum powerline rate which will be shown on the tpplc utility. The powerline speed showing in tpplc utility will not reach 600/1000Mbps due to the interferes in the powerline environment.
It is suggested to refer to two articles to know more and confirm whether the speed on your PC is correct or not.

@CATTO I think the limit you got was caused by the quality of the lines, so AV1000 wouldn't help much.
Maybe you can try the 1300AV or higher, which has MIMO (the earth line is also used beside the live and neutral).
