PowerLink
Setting up a tp-link TL-PA7010P KIT V2, Arriving Thursday March 26
Setting this up
- Plug in one unit in the basement and connect it with an ethernet cable directly to the Verizon(?) cable modem with wifi.
- Plug in one unit in Susan's upstairs office
Plug these directly into the wall sockets, NOT a power strip (which can plug into the power socket on this device). I purchased these slightly more expensive models so you won't lose a wall socket.
- Remove the wifi access point from the stairwell and bring it upstairs to plug into the upstairs unit with an ethernet cable.
If this works, consider buying two more with wifi. One can plug in at Susan's living room desk, the other in the guest bedroom
The load center (circuit breaker box) downstairs has two 120 volt legs on the left and right. Some of the wall sockets will be connected to one, some to the other, so there is no direct wire path between some pairs of sockets. While that could be a problem, this Amazon Q&A suggests that the signal can magically bridge the gap between legs. I'm counting on that.
