Model: PG2400P KIT  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: v1

Hi

 

I bought this to replace my old powerline which had stopped working after many fruitful years.

It connects, the lights go solid, I can move to the deadspot and lights are solid green.

 

BUT once moved to the deadspot location there is no ability to connect to the adaptor.

 

With the old adaprtors I paired the adaptors, moved to the new location (same as I am using now) and I could see the wifi TP link id (which was previously missing because deadspot) and my phone connected. Now I move the adaptor to the deadspot and I get nothing - still a deadspot.

 

The adaptor is working becuase I currently have my mac connected via ethernet to it and internet fine.

 

Could it be that it is not broadcasting the wifi? 

 

Help please - and probably in not too tecky words

Thank you

Hi,

 

The PG2400P KIT does not have Wi-Fi. You can only use it by connecting something to it via Ethernet cable.

 

If you need Wi-Fi as well, then you need to buy the PGW2440 KIT instead.

I see. I hope you will be able to either return the product for a refund or have it exchanged for one that supports Wi-Fi.
