1. Plug the Powerline WiFi 600Mbps adapter into a wall power outlet in the room where you want to create a new Wi-Fi hotspot or extend your existing Wi-Fi coverage.
2. The adapter will automatically connect to the Powerline network established by the first adapter.

Operating Instructions

High-Speed Data Transmission

The Powerline 600Mbps adapters transmit data at speeds up to 600 Mbps over your home's electrical wiring, with a range of up to 300 meters. This is ideal for activities requiring high bandwidth, such as HD or 4K UHD video streaming, online gaming, and sharing internet access across different rooms.

Wi-Fi Hotspot Creation

The Powerline WiFi 600Mbps adapter allows you to create a new Wi-Fi hotspot with speeds up to 300 Mbps. This extends your wireless network coverage to areas previously unreachable by your main router's Wi-Fi signal.

Integrated Filtered Socket

Each Powerline adapter features an integrated filtered electrical socket. This means you don't lose a power outlet when using the adapter. You can plug other electrical devices directly into the adapter's socket without affecting the Powerline network performance.

Connect & Secure Feature (Pairing)
