PA211 firmware update failure
PA211 firmware update failure
2014-06-08 02:58:37
Region : UnitedKingdom

Model : TL-PA211KIT

Hardware Version : Not Clear

Firmware Version : unknown

ISP : BT Infinity


I am unable to update the firmware for my three TL-PA211 Powerline adapters.
Cant find any help anywhere for this one and tried everything I can think of.

Tried the update with both the V1 and V2 Utility programs (both of which show my network of TP-PA211 adapters but neither actually show the LOCAL PA211 adapter?!)

Tried the update with both V1 and V2 firmware.

Always fails with message "Update failed"

Any suggestions.
Basically I want to update the firmware to see if I can improve the frankly awful speeds on the powerline network.

BT Infinity - 38Mb at router, drops to 9Mb off adapters :(

Thanks!

You are lucky it is not successful.
You must figure out whether your TL-PA211 is v1 or v2. If your TL-PA211 is v1, and you upgrade a v2 firmware, then your product will be broken.

By the way, the network of Powerline utility will only show you the remote Powerline adapters in the same Powerline network.
The following link will help you upgrade your product:
