FAQ
What speeds can I expect from the TL-PA7017 KIT?
The TL-PA7017 KIT supports theoretical data transfer speeds of up to 1000 Mbps using the HomePlug AV2 standard. Actual speeds will vary depending on network conditions, electrical interference, distance between adapters, and other environmental factors.
How far can the signal travel through my home’s electrical wiring?
The TL-PA7017 KIT supports a range of up to 300 metres over your home’s electrical circuit. Performance may be affected if the adapters are on different electrical circuits or if there is significant electrical interference in the wiring.
Do I need to install any software to set it up?
No software installation is required. The TL-PA7017 KIT is plug and play — simply connect one adapter to your router via Ethernet and plug it into the wall, then plug the second adapter into any other room. The adapters will pair automatically and your network will be ready to use.
How do I secure my powerline network?
To create a private, encrypted network, press the Pair button on each adapter within two minutes. This enables 128-bit AES encryption, ensuring that your powerline network is protected from unauthorised access.
Will the TL-PA7017 KIT work with my existing powerline adapters?
The TL-PA7017 KIT is compatible with all HomePlug AV and AV2 standard powerline adapters. Note that it may not be compatible with routers or gateways using altered, open-source, non-standard, or outdated firmware.
How does the power-saving mode work?
The TL-PA7017 KIT features a patented Power-Saving mode that automatically detects when no network activity is present and reduces energy consumption by up to 85%. The adapter switches back to normal working mode as soon as network activity resumes, requiring no manual intervention.
