Pros

Superior product. Does just as advertised! It works as expected. It is certainly the best solution i've found for the backyard so far.

For something so techy, i'm amazed at how simple it is to setup. Easy setup, reliable speeds. Super easy to install.

I have 3 separate kits (all av1200 but 2 with ac1200 and one with ac1750) deployed and max thruput i get from one of these is about 175 mbps. Getting 500-600mbps even with a 3 prong to 2 prong adapter. My office is on the first floor beneath where i l...  Read More

One of the adapters has a built-in wi-fi range extender. It's easy to sync this with your existing router.

Quality


Easy to set up, works as expected, doubled up my internet speed where i did not have good signal

Being on two different circuits introduces signal degradation and interference.


The distance between the two, all the breakers and connections gave me doubt that this would work for me.

Price


After careful research, i settled on this one based on price and reviews, and i wasn't disappointed!


So you should get these ones if you have exising investment that you want to extend and also you get a decent price around $90.


If this didn't work i was going to have to go to a mesh network, which costs about 3 times as much.


It's a bit pricey, but worked great for my needs.

Shipping


I just received this a few days ago and have been using it for 2 days.

Packaging/appearance


The box comes with the connection name and password on a card in the box, so i just ended up using that upstairs, and have a se...  Read More

The tl-wpa8630 kit offered by tp-link is one of the best in its price range (as of early 2017).


0 ghz band and it uses mimo technology to allow more concurrent throughput.


7mbps, the tp link gave me 18mbps, that in addition to the longevity this product seems to have compared to the negative review...  Read More

    You will get the best data transfer rate on the same electrical circuit as your router to see which outlets are on that circuit shut off the breaker to the room with your router and see which plugs no longer provide electricity
