  • Good as an ethernet cable direct to your router

    I purchased the TP-Link AV1200 PLA set to replace an existing TP-Link AV200 set that I've been using for around 3 years. I live in a 2 floor house and the Sky provided SR102 wifi router is downstairs. Wifi signal is very poor and being in an area with surrounding flats the 2.4ghz wifi channel was very congested. I needed a wired connection to my PC which was on the first floor. Solution was to go for a PLA. At the time my internet connection was only 17mb and I managed to get the full 17mb through the AV200 set. A year later I upgraded to Sky fibre with a 40mb connection. The AV200 set still managed to give me the full 40mb connection with no signal loss. This year I upgraded to Sky 80mb fibre and found the AV200 couldn't achieve more than 50-55mb. Replacing them with the AV1200 set I got the full 76mb coming into the router. The the built in 3 port gigabit switch allowed me to connect a dedicated wifi AC access point and bypass the poor wifi from the Sky router. With 8 people in the house with a mix of phones laptops and tablets the PLAs have so far handled traffic really well. No restarts or paring required. I do have to mention they are much much larger than the AV200 set they replaced.

  • Extending your PLC network? - be very careful exactly which unit you choose!

    WEEEEE!! - after trying MANY other 8th & 9th generation units (none of which worked reliably for more than a few minutes!), Finally, THIS one seems to have worked pretty well for the last few days (and still is) . Thus some "tips" for anyone else aiming to extend their existing PLC system: 1) select a unit from the SAME "generation" (thus "8th", "9th2, or "whichever"!). 2) then select a unit of EXACTLY the same type/model number - Otherwise, be prepared for "a lot of problems", and "many" "return to sender, not working" "experiences" :( Edited a month later: I think that the reason that many have found these units to "stop working after a few minutes" is because they default to "Powersave" mode after around 10 minutes - thus download and install TP-Link's tpPLC.exe utility on your LAN-connected PC, run that, and then, on EVERY 8030p unit, dig into the Settings and switch Powersave OFF! That worked for me - and I think the same approach should also work for other models of TP-Link PLC units!

  • Very good where cabling is not an option and wi-fi not strong enough

    Needed more than one network port. New smart TV and sky. This is perfect. Pass through socket helps also. Have found TP-Link easy to set up and reliable

  • Initially skeptical of refurbished but gave this a chance due to the great price difference. I had to spend a few extra minutes figuring out the Wifi

    Initially skeptical of refurbished but gave this a chance due to the great price difference. I had to spend a few extra minutes figuring out the Wifi name since it had been customized by the previous user, but the small hurdle was worth it. Has been working with no issues for a couple of weeks now. Don't recall when it was delivered exactly, but that probably means it was well within acceptable timeframe.

  • Highly recommended...

    These Powerlines are the first I have bought. They are well made, but it's early days, but they do seem to perform well, with a better clearer and crisper tv picture with less buffering, which was previously very frustrating. We have incurred external power cuts in which the Powerlines had to be rebooted... which was easy. So far, they live up to the excellent reviews, they are easy to set up and live with. 5 Stars!

  • Robust and Reliable

    Just what we needed to get a connection in a dead zone in our house. Simple to set up, easy to move around to other dead zones when required. Not the cheapest on the market, but well worth the extra cost for a robust and extremely reliable connection.

  • Wi-Fi buster

    Been having trouble with my Wi-Fi connections to a desktop computer and a PS4. This home plug kit sorted all that out immediately. Very easy to set up, just plug into the nearest wall sockets, connect the cables, pair the two plugs and away you go. Problems solved.

  • Single plug to extend existing network

    I already had a pair of TPLink AC1300 home plugs but needed a 3rd for the Sky box. After making sure that this model worked with the other 1300 models, I ordered this. After arrival, I had to re-pair everything but once set up, I now have 3 home plugs whizzing away, and with fibre to the home, the download speeds and consistent data rates mean no buffering. Awesome. The key is, make sure you get a home plug that has matching speeds for a trouble-free setup.

  • Save punching holes in your walls.

    Does just what it says. Nice strong Wi-Fi signal. Connected first time and has worked ever since. The app found it and has the basic setup. Extra can be found on the web interface, opened from the app.

  • Works flawlessly for TV box

    This works at last after trying the AV2000 from the same company without success. Apparently the AV2000 models utilize the earth connection, which in my case was a disaster due to the old wiring in my house. So, if you have an old wiring system and have tried everything, please try this specific model as it might just work.
