I need suggestion here. I used tplink archer c7 as wifi router and tplink wifi extender (WA850RE). My problem is my smart tv got intermittent connection due to low signal. My router is located far from the tv. my wifi extender only using 2.4Ghz and regularly disconnect. Do i need to buy powerline adapters, or any better solution for this?

QUOTE(SilentVampire @ Jul 3 2017, 12:47 PM) I suggest you try using powerline adapters if possible, rather than the wifi extender. Connect the one of the powerline adapter directly to your router, and the other adapter to a power plug near the tv, and connect the tv to the adapter directly, via an Ethernet cable. Just be sure that your house does not have separate or three phase wiring, otherwise the powerline adapter won't work. Thanks. How to identify separate or three phase wiring? |

QUOTE(blacktubi @ Jul 3 2017, 02:19 PM) Check your power meter if you have 3 wires going through the meter. I got only 1 wires going through. But my TV located in new section (after renovation) which it got new distribution box installed by wireman. You can check your distribution box as well. If you have a 3 phase MCB then you are probably on 3 phase power supply.  Is that consider as separate line? |

Just got around 1-2Mbps download speed from 50Mbps.Anyway, powerline is working even on my 3 phase power as they share the same neutral. Newer PLC works on 3 phase. Plugged at nearest wall from new section which is same line as modem, got almost full speed. haizz  This post has been edited by theROCKeteer: Jul 7 2017, 10:26 AM |

QUOTE(blacktubi @ Jul 7 2017, 10:34 AM) Probably a different phase over there. Now my setup is a bit weird I set my powerline (Plug A) directly to unifi modem (internet output). Another powerline (Plug B) locate at the center of the house and connect to wifi router. Guess that's the only way you can do it, plugging it closest to your new extension. Before, my wifi router connect directly to modem. And surprisingly it works. I don't want mess up wires, so current setup is OK. although my tv not get full speed.
