Model: Adapter  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I just purchased a new AV2000

It claims it support 2000mbps???

 

However, my internet speed is 220mbps if I use WIFI 5Ghz to do speed testing.

 

If I use internet cable to connect to my router, the speed is 220mbps, the same.

 

If I use the AV2000 to do speed testing, it is only 75mbps!!!

 

This is ridiculous!

@JamesTan 

 

What is the model number of the AV2000? It starts with TL-WPA/TL-PAxxx.

 

The 2000Mbps is the ideal powerline link rate, it is affected by the powerline environment.

 

And the actual speed you can get from the powerline adapter is affected by many factors, including the bandwidth you paid, the powerline link rate, and obstacles or so. 

 

Please plug the adapters into the same room and check the powerline link rate between them. Try to connect your computer to the adapter and test the speed you can get. 

 

Please ensure that the firmware is up to date. 

 

Good day.

@Kevin_Z The model number is TL-PA9020P KIT

The slow speed doesn't make any sense, it is slower than my wifi

It is slower than direct cable from the router.

The distance between the two adapters are less than 30 feet

@JamesTan  Powerline will be always slower than direct wired connection and could be slower than modern mimo wifi even. If you can use a cable use it. 

To test your connection you can use tpPLC utility to check the connection between two powerline adapters. If you get 350-400 Mbps in the utility then 75-80 Mbps of real internet traffic is what powerline can do here and you are limited by your mains. If you get much bigger values in utility then you might try to read on these forums how to improve things, but there is no guarantee your actual internet speed will be higher.

I can't get over 80 mbps on mine even if they are close to each other.

This thing saying it supports 2000mbps, but only 75 in real. That doesn't make any sense. I will try to return this thing. No good!
