I was able to do some research and according to the manufacturer's instructions for the powerline products (DLAN), the individual adapters must be in the same circuit. In such a case, I would rather recommend a wireless variant such as Mesh: https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/product/asus-zenwifi-bd4-3er-set-router-49082106 or the classic variant with a LAN cable and a network switch and access points to distribute the network to the different floors.

Hello, I bought this PLC some time ago. It was installed upstairs, with the router on the ground floor with the source PLC. I have to admit that I was disappointed by the speed provided, which was nothing like that advertised. So much so that I'm no longer using it and have turned to a Wifi repeater.

Yes, this device is compatible with all common WLAN routers, including your B-Budget Internet Box 2 from Swisscom. You plug one adapter directly into a LAN port of your router on the ground floor and the other one upstairs or downstairs to extend a stable wired network over the power lines - perfect against weak Wi-Fi signal. It supports Plug & Play without configuration and standards such as IEEE 802.3 for Ethernet connections.

Powerline adapters like the TL-PA7017P KIT (CH) (1000 Mbit/s) are designed to work in most homes, including apartments, by transmitting data through your existing electrical wiring. However, performance can vary depending on your building’s wiring quality, circuit layout, and electrical interference—newer buildings (such as those built after 2010) often have modern wiring, which generally supports better performance, but there is no guarantee as results depend on your specific electrical installation. For best results, plug the adapters directly into wall sockets (not power strips) and ensure both are on the same electrical circuit if possible; if you experience issues, try different sockets or consult your building management about the electrical setup.

No, this powerline adapter does not transmit Wi-Fi. It only provides a network connection via its Ethernet port for connecting a wired device in the area where it is installed. This model has no built-in Wi-Fi function, and is only used to extend the network via the power cable with an available LAN port.

The LAN speed that is supported is 10/100/1000 Mbit/s, i.e. Gigabit Ethernet. The device has a Gigabit Ethernet port that enables data transfer rates of up to 1000 Mbit/s and is therefore ideal for bandwidth-intensive applications such as HD or 4K streaming.

Yes, you can connect several Powerline adapters to this device, i.e. more than one receiver. If you buy the product multiple times, you can connect one adapter to the router and use other adapters around the house, for example three or more. To integrate additional adapters into your existing Powerline network, you need to press the pair button on an existing adapter and then on the new adapter to pair them. You can then plug the new adapter into the desired location and connect it to your device. This makes it easy to expand the network. Note that there is a maximum number of adapters per powerline network, which is limited by chipset and firmware. The exact maximum number depends on the model, but for normal home use, several adapters are possible without any problems.

Can several TL-WPA7017P units be connected?

Helpful answer
Yes, several Powerline adapters can be connected. The maximum number depends on the model. For example, some models support up to 16 devices in the network. To add more adapters, you must use the pair button to connect them to the existing network. It is recommended to use adapters of the same series to ensure optimal performance.

The 1000 Mbps limit for the TL-PA7017P KIT is not just for Wi-Fi, but it applies to the powerline connection itself, which includes both the powerline link and the Ethernet port. When using the Ethernet port on the TL-PA7017P KIT, the maximum data transfer rate is still up to 1000 Mbps, as the Gigabit Ethernet port supports this speed. However, the actual speed achieved can be influenced by various factors such as the quality of the electrical wiring, interference from other devices, and the overall network conditions. In ideal conditions, connecting a device via the Gigabit Ethernet port should allow for data transfer rates of up to 1000 Mbps, but real-world speeds may vary based on the specific environment.

The TP-Link TL-PA7017P KIT(CH) Gigabit Powerline Adapter with socket enables a connection via LAN (Ethernet). This device utilises the existing power lines to establish a wired network connection, providing at least one Ethernet socket per adapter that allows you to connect directly to the Internet with a LAN cable. It does not support a Wi-Fi connection directly via the powerline adapter, but you can combine it with a Wi-Fi router or a Wi-Fi repeater to get a wireless connection as well.

The range via power cable is 300m, which is three times as far as Cat 6. If you need a longer distance, we are talking about industrial applications and you would probably be better off with fibre optics. Quite apart from the fact that you certainly don't have a 300m 240V power cable, which would have to be approx. 23mm^2 in diameter. The standard is 1.5mm^2.

Actually, if a wired connection is not required, one could buy a TP-Link Wi-Fi that serves both rooms. However, any module can be added to the network without any problems. They are all compatible
