Hello,
I can't add my model number for some reason, but I have a pair of Powerline adapters, model numbers are TL-PA210. It looks like they were discontinued in 2014/15.
I have tried using them with my laptop and more so with my Xbox series X. The Xbox connection seems to be much worse than wireless and will frequently not connect, plus match making settings via the NAT type are massively affected.
Before I buy new ones, I wondered if it was likely due to their age and possibly being no longer supported or similar?
Thanks!

You may need to open ports on your BT Smart hub 2 yourself through port forwarding:
- Port 88 (UDP)
- Port 3074 (UDP and TCP)
- Port 53 (UDP and TCP)
- Port 80 (TCP
- Port 500 (UDP)
- Port 3544 (UDP)
- Port UDP 4500 (UDP)
To the static IP address of your Xbox.
All these troubleshooting steps have been described in this post last sentence link - "teredo issue".

Hello again. I have opened the ports on the router as described in your post, thank you.
I also disconnected the TL-WA850RE today, and the TL WPA4220 is working perfectly, both wired and wirelessly, so perhaps it was that.
I'd like a good connection in the room I used to have the EXT, so can I use both or will they interfere? Should I get another powerline adapter instead and link it to the WPA4220 and the other powerline at the router?

Since you already have TL-WA850RE you can try to extend the TL-WPA4220 wireless signal further.
Just make sure that its DHCP server is off so it doesn't affect your main router DHCP server.
If that doesn't work well you can always add another PLC to your existing powerline network.
