Model: TL-PA411KIT  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: i don't know

It's not always but in a very long session of gaming or just using my pc it can happen, and when it does it like stops the wifi for me till it cools down so i figured it might be a firmware bug so i tried to look for the updates or anything related to that i found it: Download for TL-PA411KIT | TP-Link but i need to know the version of my device. I checked the website to know how. After i knew what to do, the only thing i found is EU:/4.0 in my physical device.

So i want to know which firmware version is on it and which is the version.

Hi @Jomou3ag1ng ,

Thank you for contacting our community.

 

Electronic devices generate heat when in operation. Generally, device temperatures below 60°C (140°F) are acceptable.

 

If Wi-Fi disconnects only during extended gaming or computer use, these activities may be placing a significant load on the adapter.

 

I think it's best to continue watching whether the TL-PA411 maintains a stable and normal temperature when not in these activities. If so, it would be best not to continue using the adapter with these two activities.

 

Best Regards.
