Discussing dlan powerline adapters involves their use for extended cable connections.
Hello, I'm considering using PowerLine Ethernet. If I purchase something like the one linked, would my connection split the 100 Mbps or give each device full speed? Thanks in advance from Germany — I understand you're not expecting a perfect result with this setup.
Both connections are 1000M ports, meaning the agreed link speed would be 1Gbit, yet the homeplug network would divide its capacity across the ports. I haven’t seen homeplug devices surpass 400Mbit/s under ideal settings—results will depend on your home’s wiring. I’ve generally steered clear of AV1000 gear because of stability problems; AV1200 has proven more consistent in my use. I wouldn’t suggest cutting corners either. Devolo DLAN 1200 would be a better pick, though I understand you’re looking for savings. TP-Link isn’t typically praised for reliability.
Thanks for the answer. The 100 Mbps is what i recieve at home. Dou you by chance know of a solution to connect two pcs without them sharing the bandwidth? Wlan is problematic and i'd rather not lay two cables through the whole flat.
This situation is highly likely related to your home's internal wiring. Three critical mistakes to avoid when using powerline adapters: Never connect a powerline adapter to an extension or surge-protected multi-plug device. Always keep the powerline adapter in the main wall socket. Avoid switching between different circuit rings with alternate wiring. If you're using extension cords, adapters, or surge protectors where the homeplug isn't needed, reconsider your setup. Optional tip: Ensure all devices share the same network settings; mismatched specs can cause performance issues. Changing the default network name on adapters is recommended to prevent interference from nearby users.
