PA411 stuck at 11Mbps
Region : UnitedKingdom
Model : TL-PA411
Hardware Version : V2
Firmware Version : 500a-1.0.0.337-01-20120309-FINAL
ISP : TalkTalk
I have a 2 Powerline networks running on the same electrical cabling system. One is a simple 2 unit affair which carries router to firewall traffic and the other is 4 units carrying traffic from the inside of the firewall to areas on internal network . The two networks have separate passhrases (Network Names), but as I mentioned, they are running on the same electrical cabling system..
Despite the headline rate for the PA411 being 500Mbps, on the internal network I am only getting 66Mbps from one of the units and 11Mbps from the other two. I have read about distances being a problem so I tried bringing all three of the units together on the same extension block (unfiltered) The numbers remained the same despite config resets and power cycling. I thought "OK possibly there is a newer firmware than the July 2012 one I have installed", but nothing is posted on the HTTP site.
Question 1: Has anyone got any advice about how I can try to achieve 500Mbps or even 100Mbps with this kit?
Question 2: Is there a firmware upgrade for the PA411 (V1)?
Many thanks
JB
