Can powerline adapters work if they are separated by different electric circuits?

4: Can Powerline adapters work if they are separated by different electric circuits? A: No. If they can pair in the same room, but the powerline LED turns off when you move one powerline device to another area, this usually means they are plugged into separate electrical circuits, preventing them from communicating.

Do powerline Wifi Extenders have to be on the same circuit?

Powerline (Home Plug) Connectors Must Be Fitted On The Same Electrical Circuit. For Powerline Adapters to work it is essential that these are installed onto the same electrical circuit to each other, if they are not they will not connect to each other.

What does AV mean on a powerline adapter?

What are the standards for Powerline adapter compatibility?

Standards for powerline adapter compatibility are set by the HomePlug Alliance, which is like a voluntary industry body for the powerline adapter industry. It helps to set standards and provides guidance and support to the powerline adapter industry to improve the scope and standards of home connectivity solutions.

Do TP-Link TP-links perform better than the devolos?

Unfortunately they don’t perform better than the Devolos – I still get about 30Mbit throughput (measured with iperf between two devices connected by ethernet to the TP-LINKs). Should’ve installed CAT5 when wiring the house : (.
