Why my downloading speed is under 1000 Mbps?
All your network devices, ethernet ports connected need to be no less than 1000 Mbps to ensure good performance. If connected with 10/100 Mbps ports, it cannot get the quoted speeds.
What is the difference between "AC1000 Mbps" and "AV1000 Mbps"?
The terms AV1000 Mbps refer to theoretical maximum physical-layer data transfer rate under the HomePlug AV2 Standard; AC1000 Mbps is for wireless signal rates under IEEE Standard 802.11 specifications. They will vary by environmental factors.
What will limit my downloading speed?
Please make sure that there is no ammeter or similar device within the electrical circuit where the two Powerline devices are plugged, or they won't be able to communicate with each other because the ammeter blocks signal transmission.
Does it compatible with my router?
Compatible with any powerline adapters/extenders and routers. May not be compatible with routers or gateways with firmware are non-standard or outdated. The speed will drop dramatically when it is connected to the lower speed devices.

This set is for cabled connection but you can also get wireless versions that are just as simple to setup, I used them to set up my games console in a room in the far corner of the house and now have perfect game play no more connection loss, very happy gamer.

We have a long thin Victorian house with a BT HomeHub-5 in the front lounge. We have a ‘copper’ connection to the BT exchange as fibre is not available in our area of London yet. That said, we usually get a reasonable 9-10Mbps connection. Our problem is that we cannot get usable WiFi coverage in the kitchen at the rear of the house.
We initially tried to use WiFi signal extenders but these proved slow and unreliable. So, about 3 years ago I purchased an AV500 PowerLine solution from SAGEMCOM. This included a PowerLine WiFi extender in the kitchen. This proved to be adequate though we did need to reset all of the adapters about once a month when things ‘locked up’. Then, a month ago, the WiFi adapter in the kitchen handed in its cards and died.
Thinking I would try for a higher-tech solution I purchased a WiFi Mesh solution on Amazon. However, this proved to be a complete disaster being slow and totally unreliable. I suspect this was due to the requirement for overlapping WiFi signals between the nodes.
So, it was back to the drawing board and I returned to the tried and tested PowerLine solution. I chose these AV600 kits as I have always liked TP-Link products and found them dependable and reliable. As such, in total, we have 3 x TL-PA4010 mini PowerLine adapters and a TL-WPA4220 WiFi extender (in the kitchen). One of the mini adapters in located in the lounge and is connected with a LAN cable to the BT router. The other 2 adapters are in the bedroom. One is connected to a BT YouView box and the other to a Roberts Internet Radio (neither of which support WiFi). A secure network was made by connecting all 4 units in turn by use of the ‘pair’ buttons.
All then burst into life and worked fine. The WiFi extender was using its factory SSID and password. I successfully tried changing this by logging onto its admin screens using a browser (you will need to know its IP address to do this – I picked it up from the BT Hub setup menus). Then, I used the ‘WPS’ method to clone the BT Hub SSID and password by, temporarily, moving the extender to the lounge and following the easy ‘quick setup’ guide. This worked a treat and everything has now worked without hiccup for over a month.
I have had previous issues with cloned SSID’s - with mobile devices getting confused when connecting. However, thus far, we have not had any problems and devices switch between the BT router and TP-Link extender (as we move around the house) without issues. That was a pleasant surprise!
I did get the tpPLC android app for my mobile and its quite informative. It has a poor rating in the Google Play Store but this is IMHO, unjustified. It has no whistles and bells or astounding graphics but it does a job simply and well. I can see the status of all adapters and the speed of communication between each one. I seem to be getting a respectable 380-450 Mbps between each device except when they are idling and the communication rate drops to, I presume, a default 11 Mbps. The app also allows you to rename the devices (which may be useful for any future trouble shooting) and it can used (apparently) for firmware upgrades. Alas, it cannot be used to restart devices (it only allows a factory reset). Nor, can it be used for changing the settings (SSID ID etc) on the extender – this can only be achieved by ‘browser’ access.
So, we are pleased. This solution is (thus far) reliable and is reasonably priced. It is also easy to set up (though my prior experience in this area helped) and it’s a step up from our old SAGEMCOM PowerLine solution. Had BT supplied us with a higher speed ‘fibre’ internet connection, I would have gone for say, an AV1200 setup with dual band WiFi. As it is, this meets our needs. Also, if you have a shortage of mains outlets in your house, you may want to opt for more expensive ‘mains pass-through’ adapters.
NOTE. I see there are a number of debates on Amazon regarding the reliability of PowerLine solutions.
ie. Some people are extremely happy while others have persistent problems.
This is not peculiar to TP-Link products.
Based on my experience, I would suspect that performance is directly related to the state of the house mains wiring. Our house has recently been rewired which not only improves (and reduces the number of) connections, but potentially shortens cable runs too. As such, unfortunately, a PowerLine solution may not be ideal for everyone - particularly in some older houses with extensions and complications added over the years. You may need to 'suck it and see' to decide if it works for you.

Worth searching for something more reliable, from another brand, if at all possible.
We have had problems for ages with being kicked from online gaming with pings of 999 and also my son getting lag every time I used the PC.
I ran a speed test and the wifi broadband would fluctuate between 4.3mbps and 13.8mbps constantly, hence, I bought this, on the advice of my friend.
I plugged it in and paired the devices, then using the supplied cables connected my router to my PC, all in the space of ten minutes. (The operating instructions are easy and straightforward to follow.)
I can only say that within minutes my signal settled at 15.8mbps and has remained in that region, XBOX or no. It remained stable after dropping out just once whilst settling and my web pages now load at a better speed than ever before.
So good that the same night I ordered a second set and now my Son's XBOX is wired in too. He has reported no lag issues at all.
For the money and the vast improvement to our gaming and surfing experience I highly recommend this.
In addition, the Nano does work in an adapter with another plug. No issues.
