TP-Link AV1000 Powerline Ethernet Adapter KIT - Gigabit Port, Plug Pair &Play, Ethernet Over Power, Nano Size, Power Saving Mode, Network Adapter (TL-PA7017 KIT)

Awesome! Our 70" samsung TV on wifi routinely dropped out of streaming apps, especially Direct TV's app which also would take forever to load. Our wifi router is literally in the next room on ATT fiber.Install couldnt be easier. Plug one box into the wall outlet, hit the pair button. Walk to the other location and do the same. In two minutes its paired. Connect the included ethernet cable from the router to one of the adaptors, and the other included ethernet cable from the other adaptor to you device. DONE!The TV has performed flawlessly. In fact, the other TVs in the house still on wifi that I used to think work ok now feel extremely slow!

TLDR: WiFi over WiFi was my life, now its Coax over AC. The Difference is 40-400ms(on a good day) to 27ms in ping.WiFi over WiFi was ok had good speeds, even better speeds than over AC(AC capped at 100Mbs), however the 40-400ms ping was atrocious.WiFi over AC was better than WiFi over WiFi as the ping went from 40-400ms down to 36-120ms.(ISP was RF and would randomly drop)Then I got wise and went with a better ISP, 1GBps(800Mbps) internet over Coax.Coax over WiFi was 39-60ms Ping 640dl and 40ul (very playable)and with these it is now a solid 27ms ping.Speed is capped at 100Mbps but its better ping for gaming.Still have the WiFi if I need to download anything, super easy switch.

Keep in mind that any powerline adapter is ETHERNET ONLY. You cannot use a powerline adapter to extend your wifi or mesh. This is really good for somebody who really really needs a wired Ethernet connection but is too far from the router and doesn’t want to run a 100 plus foot cable onto the wall/floor and around things with a possible signal loss due to cable length.Disclaimer: Our ISP is coaxial only. We can’t get fiber at our house and cable is the next best option. My review is based on that type of connection.Here’s how it worked for me: I also ordered a couple of cat8 Ethernet cables (overkill maybe but I want the best speed and latency possible at any given time no compromises and the cat8’s were about 5 bucks each so why not go all in?) and this system. They also came with their own Ethernet cables I had no idea they would but the stock ones I’m not using.I was surprised to find that it actually worked on its own without any paring needed. At first I had the router end plugged into the far corner of the living room on its own outlet but that one was too far and the speed was pretty low. I moved it to a busier outlet that was a bit closer to my room from the living room and still managed to get it plugged in on its own and the speed jumped right back up.The other end goes to my console, and while my in-game performance was doing pretty well over wifi, there would be occasional spikes. This seems to have eliminated that but at first when i had it on the far outlet the latency seemed much much worse than wifi.In game latency at first setup jumped from 32 (over wifi) to over 70-80 with this system but then after a few days it came back down. I also do remote play sometimes so this helps a little on the sending end with stability. The consoles NATIVE speed test now shows around 28-36ms ping (I was getting that over wifi too) and about 40 or so in game. Interesting enough my in-game used to stay around 30 or so but those spikes seem to be gone so the extra 8-10 loss in my game doesn’t feel too big for the better stability that I now have. I thought this might just be a server issue but I use the same server as I did before and it’s just a little higher not noticeably.Keep in mind you HAVE to plug both adapters directly into an outlet no matter what for these to be effective. Absolutely no surge protectors or extension cords or none of that.Overall this works good for me, it fixed most of what I needed it to, and provides a wired Ethernet connection without being close to the router as I’m unable to anyway. Speeds remain the same as before though no change.

Been using this as my primary method of connecting to a network in another building without having to run cable for about a year now. Cuts out from time to time but usually works well.

I have bought these for years but this time got a defective set. IN my experience these only last 2-5 years before failing.I have used TP Link and Netgear Power-line adapters to run my Brother printer to the router for wireless printing. This time we decided to get a second printer with its own Wireless and it is tiny but does all but document feed. I connected my trusty DCP-7065DN Brother Laser to my computer via USB direct making it only work with mine in my office. It still works like new and uses third party toner cartridges just fine. I will run it until I run out of toner and then we will use the new HP laser. I still have several toner cartridges and a drum for it. The new HP demands HP brand so we will use mine primarily and may decide to get a refillable tank printer. But those have head cleaning maintenance.

This product (TP-Link Powerline AV1000 (TL-PA7017)) works great! I paired it with a slower 600Mbps unit and it gave me almost double the speed I was getting with two 600Mbps units (from less than 50Mbps to over 95Mbps, the max the 600Mbps unit can output from the Ethernet port). I cannot fault it.

Works, compact enough to not block the top outlet. Instructions as clear and easy to set up

I really wanted to like this. The idea is great - just plug in and boom, wired internet through your power lines. Setup was super easy, literally plug-and-play, no complaints there.But performance-wise? Meh. It technically works, but I was getting lower speeds than my already-mediocre Wi-Fi. I tested it multiple times and in different outlets, and yeah... consistently underwhelming. Might be okay if you really can’t get Wi-Fi in a spot and just need a stable (but slow) connection. Otherwise, don’t expect miracles.
