Can anyone advise whether it's possible to connect a powerline adapter to a router wirelessly i.e. without a direct ethernet connection? I am trying to connect to a mobile wifi hotspot (Huawei E5577C) that doesn't have any ethernet ports (or any other ports). Thx

Unfortunately, the wireless adapter is not able to do any sort of WDS bridging. It would be best to see if the phone carrier has a list of tested devices able to connect to the Wi-Fi. We do have the TL-WR902AC, but I am not sure if there may be issues since the source is a mobile hotspot.
