[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1081726, member: 176704"] Thick walls => old house => "questionable" quality power wiring => possibly "less than fast/reliable" PLC?? PS: from recent (and very "trying" with multiple "experiments" with quite a few add-ons to the basic "starter" kit" :( )"experience" in trying to set up PLC comms (using TP-Link "generation 8" kit) in this 1920's/30's house (and in which I have, over the years, made signicant changes to the wiring system), prior to the installation of PoE CCTV in a couple of weeks or so: I advise using [B]exactly[/B] the same brand a[I]nd model[/I] of PLC plug-in adapters throughout the system - [I]and[/I] switch off any "power saving" features on every adapter or else one or other of those may drop off the system :( OTOH, the issues now seem to be resolved and the system seems to be working well with stable 3-way comms between the adapters in the lounge (the link to the house Cat 5E system), the one in the conservatory, and the one in the attic. PS: and some PLC adapters use WiFi at one end of the system or another. [/QUOTE]
