TP-Link TL-PA9020P KIT AV2000 Powerline Kit with AC Pass-Through, 2Gbps/300m, 2+2 GLAN

As a replacement for the AV500s I was already using, it's amazingly better. Pass through, 2 ports, 2000 Mbps? Yes please.
But.
We had 4 in place, one by the router in the garage, one for Smart TV / Sky, one for my PC, one for the wife's PC. All great. Then I added a fifth for the PS3 / PS4. Suddenly the status lights were red instead of green and the network, particularly internet access, was patchy.
Removed the one for the wife's PC, we're back to green, everything's great again. And she's happy too because I've put a cable between my device and her PC. As a replacement for the AV500s I was already using, it's amazingly better. Pass through, 2 ports, 2000 Mbps? Yes please.

Pretty good product, bit annoying that if you use both ports on the bottom with a flat network from your router that it creates a loop and crashes your network. Speeds are pretty good, haven't done too much testing to try and get better speeds but get 80mbit easy on a split level house Pretty good product, bit annoying that if you use both ports on the bottom with a flat network from your router that it creates a loop and crashes your network.

Bought 2 pairs of these to put into 3 rooms, and another at the router near the kitchen. Speeds are pretty good, and the wiring of the house is probably not the best but can get around 90-120Mbps depending on what other devices in the house are switched on, and how many adapters are on at once. In a new house with very good wiring, you should see better speeds.

If you have ADSL or VDSL internet, beware that these may interfere with your link speed. I upgraded the firmware to the latest from the TP-Link website, and then enabled the "Lower PLC-to-VDSL interference Mode" on each adapter using the tpPLC software for Windows or Mac, and reloca...view more Bought 2 pairs of these to put into 3 rooms, and another at the router near the kitchen.

I upgraded the firmware to the latest from the TP-Link website, and then enabled the "Lower PLC-to-VDSL interference Mode" on each adapter using the tpPLC software for Windows or Mac, and relocate the router to another socket. This improved the situation, but there is still some reduction in speed (~5Mbps down), although it doesn't bother me too much. Your mileage may vary on this, depending on how your house is wired of course.

In summary, a good buy if you have wifi dead spots in your house, and running ethernet throughout the house isn't feasible. Keep in mind you won't get anywhere near 2000Mbps in performance, though.

This device cannot handle ethernet traffic around 350Mbps or above; I have Gigabit fibre coming into my home and could never get anything near the speeds my ISP was providing. It throttles everything despite claiming that it has Gigabit throughput. I am so terribly disappointed.

I have a studio at the top of the garden, so these devices were perfect. Plugged them in, and it just worked. I'm receiving around 75Mbs download and 39Mbps upload.

One star deducted as they are REALLY BULKY. If you have a double wall socket, say goodbye to the second socket as this guy tramples all over it.

Does what it says it does. I only managed to get about 250Mbps out of it though. Does what it says it does. I only managed to get about 250Mbps out of it though.

I'm getting just under 200Mb/s with near perfect wiring (maybe 10-15m) so not as fast as I'd like, but very reliable connection. I'm getting just under 200Mb/s with near perfect wiring (maybe 10-15m) so not as fast as I'd like, but very reliable connection.

The box says 2Gbps, my reality is 80Mbps. All to do with the quality of your house wiring apparently. The box says 2Gbps, my reality is 80Mbps. All to do with the quality of your house wiring apparently.

I'm still floored by the magic of this device ..
I have a second TV downstairs and a study with desktop upstairs.
Using this powerline adaptor, my TV gets full speed internet downstairs and I can play all the games in my Steam Library with a gaming controller on a couch at full speed, no lag, even the more demadning ones. It's awesome! :) I'm still floored by the magic of this device ..

Excellent product for those not wanting to use wireless or ethernet internet connections.. This was an upgrade from a previous TP-Link Powerline kit and the speed improvement was substantial.

Better than my TP-link AV500 and D-Link AV500 powerline adapters. Not getting anywhere near the rated speeds between floors in the house but I guess that is due to house wiring when both plugged in on the same floor. Having pass through Power and 2 LAN ports per adapter very useful. Better than my TP-link AV500 and D-Link AV500 powerline adapters.

Have a gigabyte connection and get good Wifi speeds throughout the house apart from the office, which has fair to average WiFi strength. Product gives me 1/9th the speed I get with Wifi. Installed correctly directly into wall with CAT6 cables in new house / wiring. Would like to return.
