Selling a TP-Link powerline with 2 access points, which serves to connect directly to the router and another to PC/PlayStation/Xbox. The speed is up to 1 gigabyte per second or 1000 megabytes. A powerline, also known as a PLC (Power Line Communication) adapter, is used to extend your internet network, whether wired or Wi-Fi, by using the existing electrical wiring in your home or office. Its main function is to turn electrical outlets into network points, allowing you to bring the internet signal to rooms where the router signal is weak or nonexistent without needing to run Ethernet cables. It works using a kit of at least two adapters. One is plugged into an outlet near the router and connected to it via an Ethernet cable. The other adapter is placed into an outlet in the room where network access is desired. Data communication then occurs through the building's electrical wiring. Main uses: * Extending network coverage: A practical solution for bringing internet to areas of the house with poor Wi-Fi coverage. * Simplified wired connection: Enables connecting devices that require a more stable connection (such as computers, gaming consoles, or smart TVs) via Ethernet cable in locations far from the router, without the complexity of installing long cables. * Alternative to Wi-Fi repeaters: In some scenarios, it can offer a more stable and faster connection than traditional wireless signal repeaters. Advantages of using a powerline: * Easy installation: Setup is generally simple, requiring only plugging the adapters into outlets. * Minimizes need for cables: Uses existing electrical infrastructure, avoiding construction work or visible network cabling. * Potentially more stable connection: Under good electrical wiring conditions, it can provide a more consistent connection than Wi-Fi. Disadvantages to consider: * Variable performance: Connection speed and stability depend heavily on the quality and complexity of the electrical installation. Old wiring, different circuits, or the presence of certain electrical appliances may cause interference. * Sensitivity to interference: Electrical devices connected to the same circuit may degrade the signal. * Occupies power outlets: Each adapter uses an electrical outlet, and its performance may be compromised if connected to extension cords or surge protectors. In short, a powerline is a convenient solution for expanding your home network, turning electrical wiring into a medium for transmitting internet data, ideal for solving Wi-Fi coverage issues or providing wired connections in areas distant from the router.
