Review: Perfect for Gaming! - When reading this products reviews I didn't see a whole lot about what it can do for gaming. Now this item is very inconsistent per household from what I understand. I live in an apartment that's 760 sq. ft. and my modem is in another room from my gaming pc. I play league of legends and played on WIFI for 9 months. As most of you may know WIFI is insanely inconsistent and your ping spikes can make it unplayable. I could never play at night because of congestion and I could barely play during the day. I was averaging a jump in ping from 67-85 mostly averaged 73. First off this product is the easiest thing in the world to set up. It literally is plug and play. After plugging it in I immediately noticed a difference. Now before I go into great detail, I did want to say; this will drastically drop your internet speeds. On WIFI I got 500 mbps download, now I get about 50 mbps. If you know anything about gaming though you don't need those excessively fast speeds, your ping is everything. My ping now is a consistent 66-67 and never EVER fluctuates. It literally feels like I am plugged in with a direct ethernet cable and I am in love! This product is truly heaven sent and I cant thank the creators enough. I am no longer getting frustrated from lag anymore and I can play at all times of the day. It may not work the same for you but I highly recommend testing it before you go with any other method! Review: Great solution for relocating your WiFi router to a better spot - I've been using powerline ethernet adapters for 20 years to extend ethernet in our 2-story house. The office where our broadband comes in is upstairs in a far corner and not ideal for broadcasting WiFi to the rest of the house. I've turned off the broadband router's built-in WiFi and use the powerline adapters to extend the wired connection to a central area downstairs where I have a WiFi router running in access point mode. I highly recommend this setup to anyone who's unhappy with the coverage from their broadband provider's WiFi signal. Even if the location of the router is a good spot for a 3rd party WiFi router, you want to run your additional router in access point mode to keep it from creating a 2nd isolated network behind your broadband router. This results in a condition called "double NAT" which will cause most routers to generate an error message in their setup software. You may have odd connectivity issues and hard-wired devices on your network won't be able to communicate with devices on WiFi. Access point mode turns off all routing features of the router and it simply adds wireless connectivity to the existing wired network. You can also have multiple WiFi routers in access point mode at different locations and if you use identical WiFi network settings (same SSID, password, and authentication type), your mobile devices will seamlessly roam between them, connecting to whichever signal is strongest. This is my current configuration. I've had many powerline ethernet adapters from various brands over the years (Linksys, Trendnet, Netgear, and now TP-Link) with great results and have typically only replaced them when a new higher-speed model becomes available. This time the Netgears I'd been using since 2015 succumbed to old age and started intermittently dropping packets or failing altogether and needing to be power cycled. The leading brands for consumer networking gear tend to change over the years and I've been very happy with the various TP-Link products I've been using over the past 5 years or so. I have a number of their smart plugs, a couple of switches, and a WiFi router. I wasn't at all surprised that these powerline adapters worked flawlessly out of the box. I didn't even have to go through the pairing operation - they immediately connected when I plugged them in. I should be good for another 10 years or so. Keep in mind that both units do need to be on the same electrical circuit, so it's not guaranteed these devices will work for your specific use case. Negative reviews of these units tend to be from people who've discovered their home wiring configuration makes them unusable. It's also important that you plug them directly into the wall outlet and not into a surge protector. Surge protectors are designed to suppress electrical "noise", and the data the powerline adapters send to each other is literally electrical noise. If you need a surge protector plugged into that particular outlet, plug it into the back of the powerline adapter. ## Features - 𝐄𝐱𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐄𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐭 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐄𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐦 - This device is meant for individuals that are not able to extend their Ethernet connections where routers or range extenders do not work.

Does it mean both are on same circuit breaker? Same panel? (I have two} or just same power supply?** A: "Same circuit" in this case is referring to the main circuit (panel). As long as both adapters are plugged into outlets that lead to the same circuit panel, connectivity will be possible. **Q: By same electrical circuit, are you saying the same side of the panel? My panel is 220 volts. So I have 110 volts entering each side of my panel.** A: The term "same electrical circuit" is referencing the main circuit (e.g. circuit breaker panel). As long as the outlets in use are on the same breaker panel, a connection is possible. However, if the adapters are plugged into outlets that are on separate panels, a connection will not be possible. **Q: Will this work with a hard wired surge protector?** A: If you are asking whether it will work if one or both of the adapters are plugged into a surge protector, then no. Powerline adapters should be plugged directly into wall outlets. **Q: If home has wireless router, why is it necessary to have this powered Ethernet to connect a device? Can anyone explain it?** A: Wireless frequencies are toxic anti-life frequencies causing ill health such and heart variability, brain fog, head aches (and much more). Most people have poor quality sleep and don't realize its caused by their wireless exposure. With this device you can log into your Router and turn off the wifi radio and just use Ethernet connection where you need it when you need it. Most devices, even cell-phones, can be plugged into Ethernet with an adapter. (https://www.amazon.com/s?k=ethernet+usb+c+adapter) Give your body a break and reduce your wireless exposure today! Turn off WiFi, turn off Blutooth, turn off 4g/5g while at home and feel better! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for Gaming! *by D***N on July 25, 2023* When reading this products reviews I didn't see a whole lot about what it can do for gaming.

Take both of them to the router, plug them into adjoining plugs, (in the same room or along the same wall). Plug one of them into the router with included cord, click pair (don't hold it) power button will blink. Go to the other and click pair. Power button will blink. Wait for all 3 lights to go green. Take second one into room you need an ethernet cord, plug in and boom! If you got 3 lights you are good to go! I had a TV in the basement that had really poor WiFi signal, used this thing and boom full speed 4k and direct cord connection to the TV. The man cave TV is finally alive! I'd give the thing five stars, but it partially blocks the other plug in the socket. You can't plug another grounded socket into it. Yes it has the passthrough, but you are turning a two plug socket into one. Normal two prong cell phone chargers and lamps will fit in the extra, so with a little "Cable management" it was OK. The though put had no problem with a string of neon lights on a grounded powerstrip and a three way non grounded cell phone charger. Was giving me the max amount of MBPS Spectrum gives me in a 30+ year old log cabin with everything on and running that was connected to the plug. I'm sure I'm pushing the 15A max. Awesome product, wish I had know about these things sooner. ## Frequently Bought Together - TP-Link AV1000 Powerline Ethernet Adapter Kit (TL-PA7017P KIT) - Passthrough, Noise Filtering, Gigabit Port, Plug Pair & Play, Network Adapter - DbillionDa Cat8 Ethernet Cable, Outdoor&Indoor, 6FT Heavy Duty High Speed 26AWG, 2000Mhz with Gold Plated RJ45 Connector, Weatherproof F/FTP UV Resistant for Router, Modem, PC, Gaming - TP-Link TL-SG105, 5 Port Gigabit Unmanaged Ethernet Switch, Network Hub, Ethernet Splitter, Plug & Play, Fanless Metal Design, Shielded Ports, Traffic Optimization,Navy Blue --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/326235583-av1000-powerline-ethernet-adapter-kit-passthrough-gigabit-port](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/326235583-av1000-powerline-ethernet-adapter-kit-passthrough-gigabit-port) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-09-18*
