I currently have a wifi 5 router and have extended the wifi using a PA-9020 and 3 off WPA-9610 adapters.

I live in and old coah house with very thick stone walls so powerline is the only way I have been to get network coverage.

I PA-9020 plugs into my router and also have an ethernet cable from the router to one of the wpa-9610 adapters.

tpPlc utility shows powerline speeds between the PA-9020 and the WPA-9610 adapters of 1225mbs , 500mbs (also connect via ethernet to router) and 150mbs

tpPlc also shows speeds of 500mbs and 300mbs between the WPA-9610 adapters over powerline.

 

I currently have router speed of 80mbs and can acheive 75mbs download over wifi from all of the WPA9610 adapters.

 

I am considering upgrading to 500mbs FTTP broadband and wifi 6 router.

I am also consdiering the Deco PX50 as an upgrade to the powerline adapters 

I would proably keep the wifi 6 router operational and use the Deco PX50 (3 pack)  in access point mode to replace the WPA-9610 aadapters.

 

Since the current WPA-9610 adapters are rated at 2000 mbs over powerline,

Will the Deco PX50 be and better since these are only rated at 1500mbs over powerline

 

I could cable 2 of the DECO units back to the router but the third would be very difficult.

 

How can I get the 500mbs to each of the Deco PX50 units.?

 

Any opinions or advice greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks

Bill

Hi, welcome to the community.

The maximum speed powerline rate of Deco PX50 is less than TL-WPA9610. But its wireless standard is much higher.

 

After replacing 3*WPA9610s with 3-pack Deco PX50, the two PX50s that are planned to be wired into the  FTTP  WiFi 6 router could be around 500mbps.

-The Ethernet Backhaul speed would no longer be limited by the powerline rate-General questions about Ethernet Backhaul feature on your Deco

 

For the last PX50, it should work simultaneously over WiFi and PLC Backhaul(For your house style, it is likely to be PLC Backhaul only). The actual internet speed might depend on its powerline rate. The expected speed would be about 300-450mps.

 

Furthermore, if the third PX50 is not far away from another PX50, the following layout would also be a great workaround:

 

FTTP entrance------ISP wifi 6 router---<cable>---main Deco PX50

                                                         ---<cable>---2nd Deco PX50---------<cable>----3rd Deco PX50

 

Thank you very much and best regards.
