Review on Wi-Fi Powerline router TP-LINK TL-WPA7517 KIT, white by Micha Kobiaka ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Average quality of the product, especially for the money.

The problem manifests itself as follows: I connected it, set it up, spread it over the floors, everything seemed to work. But as soon as you turn on any equipment with a power supply (DVR, video camera) next to the outlet where the "Powerline" is located, the connection immediately broke. Complained to tech support. They said it was a problem with the machines. I removed all involved circuit breakers from the wiring diagram, and lo and behold, it's been two weeks without a break in communication. The power supplies stopped responding. Fortunately, the new house is not yet completely plastered. I will lay a separate cable with sockets. Internet cable is not an option, you need a large spread of WI-FI around the area around the house.

Pros
  • It works . There is a huge BUT .
Cons
  • If you have a modern house, or a modern apartment, where the electrical wiring of each room is equipped with its own circuit breaker, then this device is not for you. This technology works within one circuit breaker, I learned this when communicating with technical support.

Its pros: 2 weeks at work. So far without failure. With its cons: Still, not a mesh system - reconnection to another device occurs only after a complete loss of signal.
