How to Install a tp-link AV1000 Powerline LAN Adapter

[@nadarip3725]

It's always nice to learn from Jake Gyllenhaal

[@Kit1128]

Exactly the same mouth!

I didn’t even know his name til now but I knew exactly who you were talking about😂😂

[@rhitrix]

You may be getting only 10 up and 10 down because your on two different circuits in your house i.e., the basement is on one circuit breaker on your panel and your router is on another circuit breaker on your panel. These things work best when they're on the same circuit supposedly. For you, the better solution would be to get mesh wifi. Your base station would be full bandwidth (65 mbps) and each mesh node would be about 50% of that, so 3x what you're getting downstairs. The days of a single router providing wifi throughout the house are long over. Just something to think about.

[@glowinglegendd9897]

Get what ?

[@BTunaTTV_YT]

​@@glowinglegendd9897mesh wifi is a different type of internet setup

[@lionintu]

Im glad someone considered this. Somehow it never gets mentioned

[@RawFitChris]

I remember when I first got these over 10 years ago and the internet service provider technician from Optimum said they never saw one before. Almost didn't know what it was, but was surprised how well they worked to bring signal up from the modem in the basement to the top floor to my desktop.

[@Jason727-ro2hw]

This is way better than my old wifi extender I used to get 1mbps and now I get 400mbps

[@CoreTorque]

You are going to need a better disguise than those glasses to fool us Jake Gyllenhaal!

[@DogeWithSuit]

My internet is so bad that the internet speed test didn’t load

[@DrWenChannel]

If you have a 50Mbps plan and only gets 10Mbps down with this "wired" powerline solution I won't say it's pretty good, right? I have a super old house and just tested this out and it does not work for me at all...

[@KongmengChang-c2y]

Hello people, if you have adapters that don't connect. literally try unplugging both from the wall and leaving them out for like 10 minutes then plug them back in and turn them on... that worked for me hahaha hope this helps

[@HDBoyWonder]

Don’t you also have to make sure you plug the two Ethernet adapters into two different household circuits? I use two power line Ethernet adapters (different brand and only for low-traffic network extension to add Ethernet to two outside walls of our existing structure (to hang WiFi lamps).

[@SpyroTheGerudo]

I am considering getting a powerline adapter. I moved houses, and the plug situation in my house sucks. The length my wifi signal has to travel to my extender is too far, and since it's Xfinity, I just keep getting drops and my devices try connecting to the gateway instead of the extender. I can't stream at all anymore, so I'm going to look into this.

[@LeBrohn]

Just purchased this and watched your video, thank you so much for the help🙏🏼

[@Ober1kenobi]

Here’s the kicker I bought this thing this morning, did this exact thing, had the exact same results, all 3 solid green lights, No internet connection I hate them tbh

[@DexPhizzle]

I have a question… I don’t know much about extenders.. if I connect my router to the extender through Ethernet, can I use the “Ethernet internet” to create a new WiFi through the extender, while my routers wireless WiFi is turned off? I’ll appreciate every answer 🙏🏻

[@flyhighsavings]

buy this if u experience random discconects super useful i got extremely tired kf getting randomly disconnected and connected back again to my wifi this works perfectly

[@pilot_doggo]

I am currently having that issue, how good is your internet and what speeds do you hit now?

[@404drobo8]

If it’s plugged into an extension lead does it still work ?

[@socialmarketinguru]

If you want to have a faster internet/transmission rate between the adapters, you need to pair your adapter with your modem via WPS button, in order to clone the WiFi name + the password. It works 10x faster since I have done that.

[@jakublogan8415]

Do you have the steps on how to do this?

[@socialmarketinguru]

@@jakublogan8415 press the wps button on your wifi adapter and then within 2 minutes press the same wps button on your modem (in order to clone the wifi). Once done, you will basically have the same WiFi name (with the same password) on each floor and your basement and you will also increase the bandwidth rate between those devices, which means faster WiFi.

[@jakublogan8415]

@@socialmarketinguru thanks for the reply but unsure if I understand. I’ve tried to do this but the adaptor just continually flashes and doesn’t pick up the router despite being relatively close. Am I missing a step?

[@Griefed1x]

@@socialmarketinguru i might get one of these so all i have to do is press the wps button on the 2 adapters and it should make the connection so much better

Thanks for the info, Jake Gyllenhaal!

[@dori6044]

Im paying for a gigabyte internet and I only get around 50Mpb when using the TP link adapter. I have a Asus gaming router which should be powerful enough, what can I do? I cant use straight ethernet because it will get in the way.

[@stephanierodriguez6655]

I have a laptop that doesn't have an ethernet to connect too can i connect it to my printer and will it still work on my laptop?

[@summers7468]

Is the ethernet connection speed capped like some of their other products. Some cheaper versions are capped to 100mbs per ethernet port

[@jonjon9237]

Can I have Moran then 3 pair boxes in my house ?

[@debora81_]

Can I use one of the Adapters as a wifi extender?

[@avzerd9003]

does this improve ping and gaming experience or does it only improve download speeds etc.?

[@josh-yg4xo]

low ping at the cost of download speed i believe

[@acey8274]

@Giga Chad does it improve lag spikes and ping spikes?

[@8m405]

Can you use both devices via wifi. I meant without Ethernet cable

[@mikookii]

mine only came with one and has the exact same directions, what do i do??

[@DetroitBecomesBuddha]

Thanks , Andy.

[@sunshynff]

Great video, I got the same product and lost the directions, you showed me exactly what I needed. I should add, though with any of the brands, I pretty sure the two outlets you use need to be on the same circuit for it tow work probably, I'm hooking mine up in a little bit, I put in a new outlet because my didn't work at all before, I'll pop back in and see if that made a difference.

[@renspeene]

What speed do you get

[@tone5434]

Did it work??? Mine isn’t pairing at all

[@sunshynff]

@@renspeene...Well my plan is only rated for 300down I think the highest I got on another brand I bought, these ones never worked, was 110 down, 20 up, but that's more than enough for a couple security cams, I never expected them to get anywhere near their claim of 300 when passing through old electrical wire.

[@renspeene]

​@@sunshynffI went with an wifi adapter on my pc it has 900 mb up and down

[@fadatiko]

I know this an old video but I have a question. Is it possible to use this without the WiFi. I looking to disable the WiFi and only use the LAN. Is this possible?

[@matthewpringuer-james7527]

My one of these is t switching on any clues or is it just broken?

[@GacktSama1992]

I have one of these, but unfortunately I’m getting 250 for speed. It does lag spikes once in awhile is this normal using a Ethernet adapter.

[@ajmeerk]

Is it okay to turn of the adapter at night/when not in use?

[@TechinfluenceTV]

Sure it will sync back up when you plug it in

[@chestercopperpot5139]

I’m using this set up bro. But it pairs in my house but won’t pair when I’m in my summer house witch is 80 foot away from router witch is about 30 meters something like that. It says it goes up to 300 meters. Any help I’m not tech savvy lol. Thanks

[@MothicaBlack]

Thank you!

[@ragingsilver]

I got this set, whilst I have 1GB internet, these kits are only getting me around 150 mbps which is way short of what I should be getting. I'm not sure why though. My wifi reaches around 500-700 mbps on a good day which is much closer to what I'm paying for.

[@bk8753]

Me with me it’s my wifi gives me slow downloads and a lot of lag but when I use these the downloads is like 18mbp and no lag

[@ragingsilver]

@@inthistogether7874 I gave up in the end and got my self an Asus wifi 6 mesh router and wired one into my PC. I'm now getting the speeds I'm paying for. Bit overkill I know but hey it works.

[@edgetown100]

What if I only need to connect one to my wifi?

[@theamaturepro]

I plugged mine in to my computer and it went completely insane and would hardly work. I then realized how incredibly simple it would be to have malware on these devices programmed to connect to the Internet and give access to ashab idab into my computer. I doubt that's what happened as tplink seems to be a good brand, but it's incredibly plausible. I ordered a few sets, tried another on my TV and it connected but wouldn't say anything other than there was no Internetn over the connection. Haven't messed with it since then.

[@556slime]

so i live in a one story and the living room is somewhat connected to my room but for some reason it wont pair it did when i first got it then it just stopped working all of a sudden i need help

[@deborahmarkley1891]

Thanks for this - question, though - My modem is in the living room, and I need better wifi in my bedroom and my son's bedroom - so does that mean I need the one piece that plugs into the router, and then 2 of the pieces for each PC, or do I have to have two separate kits? I hope that made sense - thanks!

[@kyanblevins3431]

2 separate kits

[@TacticalSeagull]

TP link also sells a kit with one of the two units being able to produce a wifi network

[@x2openai]

What about wifi extender? Does it give the same preformance?

[@hetwiki]

Powerline is just far more powerful than any extender. In fact, extenders takes signal from your router and "eats" half of the mbps and transfers it to you where you have a dead zone. So if you have 20mbps plan, the extender will distribute only 10mpbs to the dead zone you need to cover. They consume a lot!

[@arlenreyes4283]
