Great - easy install - fast and more stable connection vs wifi
September 18, 2017
I had some crazy crappy wifi - I wanted a wired connection for video games; I however didn't want to run / drop a cat cable from room to room - This is working awesome. I have 300mb service from COX - if I connect my computer directly to my modem I get the full 300mb ..I set this up easily - plug and play, router first - then other end - click pair on the router side then click the pair button on the other end - they find each other like magic (through your freaking AC wiring in your house) .. I now get 30-40mb down (was getting 20 with bad ping on wifi) the 30-40mb is a real 30-40mb and a very steady respectable 50ms ping..I expect it to work a little be better when my new router comes in and has better throughput on the ethernet side.Great buy - I got the 200mb version
Easy way to network all the stuff in my office back to a hard wired connection in my router. Push button setup!
June 10, 2017
I am using these to establish a hard-wired connection between my gear in my office and my master bedroom closet, where my wifi router is located. I plugged one into the wall in the office, connected it to an 8 port switch with a network cable, plugged the other one in the master bedroom closet and connected it to the router, pressed the connect button on each, and voila! I had a stable network connection between all the devices in my office that I plugged into the 8 port switch. This kit includes two network cables, so bravo for that. The only reason I would spend more would be on a faster version - my downstream is limited to about 40mbps with these while my router actually supports 200mbps. This doesn't functionally affect me, since I just stream video and audio and browse the web in my office, but TP-Link has faster versions (av300, etc.) that will accommodate people who are gaming or need more bandwidth in another room.
Worth your consideration
May 31, 2017
Definitely helped my situation. Our ISP bills us for 75 Mbps which is possible if wired to the router but my room is across the house. Over wifi I get around 25-30 Mbps with a rare to semi-occasional drop in connection. This is terrible whenever I'm playing a game as it will be a stable connection followed by lag spikes that a lot of times will kick me from whatever I'm playing. I got tired of this but i'm lazy enough to not want to route Ethernet through the attic just for my computer. Bought this with the confidence of free returns but I absolutely love it now. On speed tests I've gotten a range of 40-66 Mbps which is way better than what I was dealing with before and now my ping is always hovering around 40 making games as smooth as can be. Maybe it was placebo but choosing which outlet I used seemed to affect performance as it had less along it's route. I also felt like having things plugged into the outlets that were along the path also affected it. As for house layout this is a ranch house and the placements of the router and my powerline are basically diagonally across the rectangle floor plan so be cautious if in a multi-storied home I guess
Coolio
April 24, 2017
Cool device!I "hard wired" my PS4 using this cause I was feeling too lazy and did not want to run cat5 through my walls. Works way better than wireless. I get an average of 25mbps down with this, so you wont be getting your full speed like you would with cat5.Still a great solution for renters or anyone trying to get faster speeds to a device far from the router
As good as a direct connection to your router! Also Great for gaming! (See attached image for results)
February 28, 2016
I do a lot of IT work and have a lot of friends that are in the same field but I have never encountered these adapters before this point. I was extremely skeptical of the technology and bought this adapter with very low expectations. I was pleasantly surprised to see that it works flawlessly!I have taken 4 speed tests (via internetspeedtest.com) for each type of connection (direct Ethernet connection, WiFi, Powerline) and have placed the average results below. I found that even though I have my Powerline adapter 3 floors below where my router is connected it functions as if my computer is directly connected to the router. If you are a gamer and you have your rig far from your router this would be a great product for you.Installation:You just simply plug it in and it works there is no software or any special gestures in setting it up.I've noticed that this product has a small ~10% or less of people that are reviewing it poorly. I've read these reviews and have found that either the person doesn't know what they're doing or has faulty wiring within their house. Below I've listed 2 criteria to keep in mind when buying this adapter which should ensure that the product works for you.Criteria to keep in mind:- When buying a product like this you have to make sure that your house's electrical wiring meets the standard of use - if your house was built prior to the 2000's this product may not work very well.- Also the distance between the two adapters should not exceed 1,000 feet for optimal performance. Unless you live in a mansion I don't see this being a problem.If neither of these things are a problem for you then I would recommend this product. I'm planning on installing a number of these for small businesses and a few friends in the near future. I'll post results for those installations and the specific scenarios to give you guys a better idea of whether or not your house is suited for Powerline.Thanks for reading! :)
READ THIS FOR HOME SECURITY DVR
March 28, 2015
After some research I purchased this product over the Netgear WiFi extender due to having multiple wireless devices already on my network and to have a more "hard wired" wireless approach. I received the adapters quickly with prime. The setup was so easy I had to run to make this review. I unboxed and although the reviews and instructions say not to plug into a power strip I did anyway and on both sides. The circuit where my Swann DVR is located is not on the same circuit. The DVR is clear on the other side of my 4 bedroom single story house. All I did was plug in the adapters, plug in the Cat5 cables, power on the DVR and the router, Push the two link buttons (not at the same time) on the adapters and I was streaming live video on my android phone. Awesome! I would've given this product more than 5 stars.If this review helped you please vote my review.UPDATE: 5/5/16 STILL WORKING LIKE A CHAMP!!UPDATE: 9/19/17 STILL WORKING HARD!!

There was only like 3 options that I can think of which is ...
July 20, 2017
I live in an average 2 story home and my modem/wireless router is downstairs in the wife's office. There was only like 3 options that I can think of which is one run cables through walls and stuff, uhhh, no way........has anybody ever tried to patch walls and coloring? 2nd get repeaters, which really won't work in my case because there's no plug in the stairwell, so I have to use these Powerline Adapters. I have to say that my internet was dropping a lot and now with these powerline adapters it significantly reduces the internet drops. TP link wins again for me and I highly recommend these if your internet is dropping a lot due to distance and walls/structure.
Works for me....
June 21, 2017
I didn't exactly have the best case results that other reviewers have but this did the job of getting me internet to the far reaches of my house.We have a U shaped house with the router in 1 leg of the U. We had been using a Wireless access point to try to get internet from one side of the house to the other, through 2 double pain Glass sliders and across the pool about 60 feet, it was working but not well enough for reliable Streaming of video to the TV. So I bought the TP-Link AV500 to try getting better internet to the TV. The signal into the house is 150mbs on Fiber. The results were as follows at the Top of the U, I am getting 60mbs coming down the other side of the U it falls to 25mbs by the time it gets to the end. Well, 25mbs seems to be fine for Streaming, much better then trying to get a wireless signal across the U.
Great Device Can Fix Common Issues
May 25, 2017
I bought this when I started to have Wifi problems with my Xbox One S. This pretty much fixed all of the problems I was having! It was ridiculously easy to set up, and it works rather well. Sometimes when I start my Xbox, however, it does not always connect to the Internet, I think this could either be because of the devices or Xbox OS. But either way, my Xbox is now hardwired without me having to worry about running an Ethernet wire through the wall!If you are in a place where getting wifi isn't possible, you don't have a wifi device, or the wifi range is not good at all, then this would be a great option for you. Just keep in mind that you need to have an open plugin the wall so you can plug this into it as it si not recommended to be plugged into a power strip/surge protector.
"Good enough" speed up of my home office access speed
January 3, 2016
I own an L-shaped house, where my home office is at the far end of one wing separated from the main Wi-Fi router (b+g+n) by 2 brick walls. Up until now, I have overcome this using a Wi-Fi extender (b+g+n) at the corner of the "L", and have typically enjoyed roughly 10 Mbit/s speeds up and down. For comparison, the home computer connected via Cat5 to the router gets 85 Mbit/s down and 24 Mbit/s up, respectably close to the Internet speeds I pay for.After hooking up these TP-Link units, my new home office speed is 38 Mbit/s down and 24 Mbit/s up. That is not as much speed increase as I was hoping for, but definitely much better, so I will keep on using them. (I should add that the 2 adapters are definitely on different circuits in my breaker box.)It is fast enough that I plan on eventually buying a wireless access point to put on the other TP-link adapter port in the home office. Then I can ditch the old Wi-Fi extender altogether, and have improved Wi-Fi coverage overall.
Worked for 4 Days - Updated 6-28-15, Updated 7-29-15
June 8, 2015
Install was easy and the adapters worked fine...for four days. Day five and after the Ethernet light on the second adapter would not light indicating no internet signal coming out of the unit. I contacted Support by email, couldn't get through on the phone, and was told to download a utility and to reinstall the adapters and to use different Ethernet cables. The utility would not install and then, when I tried again later, the link itself no longer worked. Reinstalling and using different cables also did not resolve the problem. It was great the first four days...then it became a paper weight. I am going to return them to Amazon and will probably ask for a refund,.All things considered, I don't think I want to try another set.Update 6-28-15: I returned the first set of two adapters and asked Amazon to send me a second set to try. They have been working well now for about two weeks. They do drop the connection occasionally but usually regain it without me doing anything a few seconds later. They are a good solution to needing better Internet coverage in my home...a good solution when they are working properly. I have revised my 1 Star rating to 3 at this point. I'll update this review again once they have been in operation for a longer period of time.Update 7-29-15: I'm pleased with this item so far...as long as it continues to function. It does occasionally fail to come out of its sleep mode requiring that the secondary adapter be unplugged and then plugged back in again. Initially, it dropped the connection from time to time but then reacquired it in a few moments. It hasn't done this for awhile. Also, if I suffer a power outage or have to reboot my modem or router, the TP-Link adapters are no longer recognized and this requires that I unplug both adapters and then first plug in the primary and then the secondary. When they are functioning, they work well. They do require the above actions, though, to keep them up and running. So far, I would buy them again.
OMG I have internets.
October 7, 2013
We live in a 100 year old house with plaster walls underneath wood paneling. Pity us. Wireless will not penetrate the walls no matter how many repeaters / antennae / amps / cats with tinfoil you place. My 14 year old daughter was throwing a stereotypical teenage girl conniption fit that her wireless kept dropping out, had a 1mbps downstream, and was generally poo. After some last ditch settings adjustments I ordered these, on the advice from a popular hardware forum.While they were a little fiddly to initially pair, once I got them installed, it was magic. Digital unicorns flew out of my daughter's Tumblr feed at the speed of 30mbps, and she no longer things I'm a moron.In other words, works awesome.

Works fine when I'm able to use it (halves my wifi ... EDIT: Fixed the problem with a caveat)
October 9, 2017
Works fine when I'm able to use it (halves my wifi speed and keeps my ping stable, which is what I need), but I've found that it keeps unpairing and I have to unplug both and plug both in again. Troubleshooting the internet connection reveals that the "ethernet doesn't have a valid IP configuration" and trying to fix it from the PC does nothing. I've had to unplug both and plug both in again every day for the past few days. This makes it basically useless for the purposes of which I bought it.Edit: I've changed my score from a 2 to a 3 because I managed to fix the problem. I refuse to give it a higher score, though, because fixing the problem entailed creating a bat file to ping the adapter every few seconds and starting that bat file every time I log in. This is akin to a duct tape fix. Yes, the product now works, but it it did not come in a fully functional state. I would recommend buying a slightly more expensive adapter if you can.
Speed is for interneting not snorting.
June 7, 2017
So, This product I am sure is fantastic in the perfect environment. however, i was attempting to boost my speeds and get off wireless and this worked...? But just. I was still no where NEAR my 300Mpbs that I was getting from the router from my ISP. however, That being said, It did double my speed so it worked for sure. but that does not matter any more... Because i have fiber now. Hnnnnnn.... Fiber...Are you on a high fiber diet?
This works much better than wifi but it drops the connection occasionally
April 21, 2017
I live in a long apartment and my router is at the opposite end of the apartment. This works much better than wifi but it drops the connection occasionally. It mostly happens at night which is weird because most of the building is asleep so I don't think anything would interfere with it at that time. It loses connection at least 5 times a night for 30 seconds to 5 minutes at a time. It's a really annoying problem but it works a lot better than my wifi so I deal with it
Using the product, TP-Link Customer Service can be hard to reach.
November 27, 2016
I've been using the AV500 adapters for a couple years now. The speed is not as promised and it does drop connections often. This is the main reason for the voluntary recall on this item by TP-LINK. Overall I would say they are still a good option. I wanted to take part in the recall and upgrade to the AV600 to get closer to the promised speeds. My main issue is with the company myself. For the recall you can either call, e-mail, or fill out the request form online. I've filled the online form out twice, e-mailed three times, and called and left angry messages for the lack of response twice by phone. I have heard nothing. This is over a period of three weeks. Customer service at TP-LINK is awful and I think everyone should be warned. For the recall, I think a class action lawsuit needs to be started because their voluntary recall solution is not a genuine solution on TP-LINK's part.1/17/17After having to open BBB and California case files against TP-Link, the company responded and settled the matter. I hope they will provide better customer service to their customers in the future.
Works Okay, But Not Reliable
October 24, 2016
I am disappointed with the reliablity. I am connecting a couple of 100M devices in a G-bit network, so I was not too concern about the speed. I am, however, disappointed that the units would lose connection every 12-36 hours or so. Fortunately, for me, the socket is within arm's reach--a quick unplug/replug fixes the problem. So, it's a minor inconvience for me. I have tried 2 versions of firmware--original_131218 and downloaded_131216. The result is similar for either. The downloaded one from tp site might be slightly better, but I only had it for a few days so far. It is slightly disconcerting that I just wiped out a possibly newer factory version.In any case, if it need not be a mission-critical device, it is an easy solution. But, if you don't ever want to fuss with it, it's probably best to look elsewhere.
Internet BOOST or BUST?!?!
September 1, 2016
Let me first start off by saying I bought this product in an effort to maximize my abilities on a new PC I recently built. This review covers three aspects, Installation, Price, and Performance.INSTALLATIONThe installation of this product is as simple as plug-and-perform as advertised, “No configuration required.” For the sake of providing more information than is really necessary, the router and modem are both in the front room of the house, about 40-50 feet away from my computer. After plugging the first TP-LINK in, simply plug the second one (they come in a pack of two) into the wall socket and then to your computer. **Remember that this works through circuits on the same panel.**PRICEAt a price-point of $35 on Amazon, it is worth the money if you are a casual computer user. Again I must re-emphasize that I built a gaming PC for the purposes of school use and gaming, not just a run of the mill computer you buy from the local Office Depot. For me, I’d rather spend this money on an Ethernet cord and get guaranteed connection which I can monitor and report to my Internet Service Provider if something goes wrong. *P.S. they sometimes like to blame your equipment instead of their connections.PERFORMANCEWhen I originally built my PC, I installed a WiFi Adapter because, at the time, I assumed this would be the easiest fix to get my computer up and running (no drilling holes, no clunky cords/connectors, etc.) With anything wireless, dropped connection can be an issue if there are more than a few devices on the same bandwidth or if the connection is having to run through multiple walls. Since both were my case, I was not able to amply use this WiFi component, and thus the genius idea to buy the TP-LINK.Upon first installation, I ran a test to determine the upload/download speeds and they were equivalent or maybe slightly higher than what I received from the WiFi Adapter. The largest difference was in the stability of the connection; it was far superior to wireless for general browsing or web surfing. However, I would NOT recommend this product for serious PC gamers. Although the internet works, the ping did not improve and thus the infamous LAG-A-THON occurred when gaming online.So, in summation, the stability of the connection is admirable and definitely worth it for the casual computer user and would even be acceptable for smaller online games. Serious gamers or heavy researchers – AKA College Students - would be better off using that $35 toward an Ethernet cord and a drill bit (if necessary) to ensure optimum performance.

Speeds not even close to what is advertised.
September 16, 2017
Unfortunately I had to return this as the bandwidth was terrible. I get 200+ mbps downstream through ethernet, and average 100 mbps over WiFi in a 4000 sq ft house (furthest point from router I get between 60-100, depending on time of day and test).I wanted to get full speed in my basement to set up home office, and found that with this I only got 30 mbps downstream with this device, worse than my WiFi. I do know others that have found this useful, particularly in older houses where the walls completely block wifi signal, but it's really a flip of the coin. For me, not worth it.
Easy plug-and-play operation? The play part did not happen
August 6, 2017
I did not see any speed improvements in all of the tests I've tried. I've tried all the plugs and speeds are just same as not having anything plugged in at all. My internet router sits in an upstairs bedroom because the guy installing the internet, said that that would be the best place for the entire house. It isn't. My living room, where all my streaming happens, has speeds at 10-15Mbps while the bedroom, where all the social networking, happens is near 100Mbps. I just need something that can fix this and this was not it.
Would be great if it had constant connection.
May 25, 2017
Tl:Dr: Don't buy, randomly disconnects.Okay, so they work pretty well, had great internet speed. Ise Cat6 Ethernet cables. There are two things that are wrong with it. First one is that you have to have nothing else, or rather, nothing with complex wiring plugged into the wall with the same room as in washer machine, refrigerator, my laptop charger or fan otherwise your internet speed will literally be a fraction of what it is possible. Went from around 35 Mbps to 7 Mbps with just my laptop charger plugged in. Another thing is you can't plug it into a surge protector cause that has same effect, or worse. That's really just the nature of power lines though. The second and most important problem is the fact that after ~30 minutes of constant use they seem to disconnect and o have to manually unplug and replug back into wall. To get to reconnect. It's super annoying, and when Im gaming it's terrible. I've looked up this issue and it seems that it's a very common problem with this adapter as well as a few other products with TP Link and they refuse to fix it. Everythings updated and such, still happens. So, because of that problem alone I will be returning this and going with a different brand. Long story short, don't buy.
I'm sure it works better for some but for me - too slow.
May 21, 2017
I'm glad it works for some people but the speeds were just too slow for me to keep using this. I wanted to use this device to relocate my wifi access point. But the speeds were so bad that it was better leaving the wifi access point where it was.I would have probably been happy with 100mbit which is 1/10th of a gigabit. Too much to ask?In the location I wanted to use this device, I was getting about 6mbit. Way too slow.
Worked great at first
February 7, 2017
Internet access keeps dropping. I have to unplug the unit and plug it back in multiple times an hour to get it to function. Worked great initially... but it seems to be dropping more frequently with each passing day. I'm unplugging it and plugging it back in every half-hour or so now.I can't really think of what else is causing the problem here... it is an old home (1910's) but it works so great the first few weeks. =/UPDATE:I moved a few months ago into a newer apartment complex, built in the 90s. I'm still using this, although I have to unplug and re-plug it in sporadically - averaging about once a day - in order to get it to work. Although in the past week I've to completely unplug and sync the units next to each other, then plug everything back in. It's annoying AF, and the manufacturer really support this product with firmware updates/etc although they're still selling them.I seriously hate these things, but the alternative is running a 100ft hard line on the ceiling.
Less expensive than Netgear, but just as good. Problem with intermittent loss of sync.
January 29, 2016
These worked great at first, they have more than double the data transmission rates of the first-generation power line adapters, and they can establish a secure link between the two ends of the connection so your neighbors can't receive your signal through their power lines. I was previously using a Netgear XAV101 set, which worked great for several years, but the transmission speed was limited to about 10 Mbps. When I tried to stream HD video across the power lines, the image stuttered. So I switched to this TP Link kit, and the stuttering disappeared. The TP-Link transmits at least at 23 Mbps, which is the max download speed that my internet service provider gives me. I don't think it really hits 500 Mbps, but who cares? It's faster than the download speed I get from the cable company, so my power lines are no longer a bottleneck. And the price is right--these are a lot less expensive than Netgear, but just as good.UPDATE: After using these for a few months, I ran into a problem where using several of them at the same time led to frequent loss of sync on one or more of them. I was using them to connect TIVO boxes to the internet, and the loss of sync would cause the TV signal to disconnect. I could immediately reconnect, but this keeps happening, so it's unacceptable. TP-Link has a return policy, so I'm returning these.

Horrible Networking Device, Be sure to ave your packaging for return.
August 28, 2017
Worst investment of $25 I've ever made.Yes, I know that this product's performance is dependant on many external factors. I'm on the higher end of networking technology use and comprehension.Besides the fact that this was unstable-ish from the beginning (which would point to external factors, maybe), it's gotten progressively worse as time goes on. I'm resetting this thing several times a day (in fact twice while writing this), and often isn't any faster than my wifi.
Download speeds less than 1Mbps!
August 22, 2017
This product is terrible! I use DSL provided by CenturyLink at 20Mbps. I usually get about 17-18Mbps on the LAN line and 15-16Mbps while on wireless. When I setup the TP-Link AV200 adapters I was only able to reach and average download speed of 0.7mbps. I tried it numerous times and kept getting the same results. The connection also drops frequently. Unacceptable! I am trying to reach TP-Link to see if I can return this product under warranty. There must be something wrong with this product because it's been successful for other users who have posted here.
Garbage
May 9, 2017
Plug and Play didn't work for me.Instructions are simple but I'm not not getting traffic from Upstairs to Downstairs using the supplied patch cables and I'm not going thru a power strip/surge protector.Instructions say to use on the same circuit? If that means off the same breaker then the description should be more specific.
Parts stopped working
January 20, 2017
Both of my adapters stopped working after about 8 months. Up till then they worked fine. After calling customer support at TP-Link I was told that they would be replaced and I was put in touch with a different department that handles replacements. The procedure they use requires that I return the defective parts to them at my expense and then when they receive them they will send me replacements. The result: My home network is down for several weeks due to their poor procedures, plus I have to pay for shipping.
Waste of time and money!
December 21, 2015
Does not work! They claim 24/7 support - you could speak to those people for 24hrs straight and not get an intelligent answer.I've been using powerline adapters for 4-5 years. I have a fair amount of experience with them - at least the ones that work. The "base" unit (the one that connects to the router) seems to be the issue for me. I have a different brand base unit and was able to get the remote unit to receive data with it, but not with the TP-Link base unit.Calling support was a complete waste of time. They had no recommendations - didn't even mention the pairing process nor did they know which LEDs should be on.
Not much better than a public signal
October 16, 2015
Not much better than a public signal. After ios9 update my iPad 2 has very very poor wifi reception. Prior to the update it was full signal. I thought the tp link would help and it has not. I'll be retuning it.Connecting was also a PITA. Although plug and play it as hard to tell when connected because the signal couldn't be read.
