Using Powerline with Airport Extreme
hi!
have bizarre situation in relatively compact 2 2 down student flat where, because router @ front of house signal doesn't reach of house (where room , flatmate's room is). real issue, not mbp our ios devices , xbox 1 (which want ethernet connect anyway).
tried tp-link powerline wireless extender after returning there constant drops in speed (pretty dropping out @ times , not working @ all). i've got mbp sharing internet ethernet wifi , seems work fine ios devices isn't permanent solution , doesn't allow me wire in xbox. i'm thinking is:
have 2 of these powerline adapters:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/tp-link-tl-pa211kit-200mbps-powerline-adapter/dp/b004invkp4/
, plugged in , paired via virgin super hub plug ethernet into: http://www.amazon.co.uk/apple-airport-extreme-802-11n-generation/dp/b0058hc4u4/
, should create signal apple devices enjoy , allow me ethernet connect xbox.
see problems/drawbacks? work?
thanks!
yes, work fine. plug ethernet cable main router 1 of power line adapters , other adapter in room express. plug cable out of second adapter wan port on express , configure identical settings main router. can use lan port xbox if necessary.
