Adding wireless extension to TL-PA411KIT

2013-08-21 20:46:57

Region : UnitedKingdom

Model : TL-PA411KIT

Hardware Version : V1

Firmware Version :

ISP :

I've just bought the TL-PA411KIT to connect up to my smart TV, and the wired connection to the TV is working really well. However, I would like to add a wireless powerline to the same network to improve the wifi signal for iPad/iPhone etc use downstairs, which is poor due to the thick walls. Is there a wireless powerline that is compatible with tmy existing setup? Or should I send the TL-PA411KIT back, and get a different model that will give me both a wired and wireless extension?

Thanks for any help.

You can just get a wireless powerline in your house and then that should be fine. You can have a look at TL-WPA281, TL-WPA271,TL-WPA2220,TL-WPA4220.. All these wireless power line adapters are compatible with yours.

Thanks for the reply. Have just bought the TP-Link TL-WPA281 so looking forward to setting it up. I see it also has a wired connection. Can you use the wired and wireless function at the same time? For example, can you have it plugged into a media streamer via ethernet, for instance, and be using it to transmit a wireless signal to your iphone in the same room at the same time? Or do you have to choose one or the other?

Yes, you can use the wired and wireless connection at the same time. However, it is not recommended to connect over 6 clients to it.
