G+_John Werner Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Question: I just moved from a house to an apartment. I can't run either net I bought TP-Link AV500 power line connectors. I was wondering if there is a way to test the speed i'm getting between nodes (boxes cinnected to the outlet)? . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Curtis Stone Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Be conscious that it is very possible other people in your apartment building my be able to access your network if they decide to buy the same adapters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Ben Reese Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Yes, exactly what Curtis said. I'm sure TP-Link encrypts, but you might change the password if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_William L. DeRieux IV Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 John Werner You might want to check on the support page for the adapters -- you might be able to use the TP-Link Utility to monitor speeds, etc. You might also want to upgrade the firmware for the devices. The link is for the TL-PA4010KIT V1 -- AV500 Nano Powerline Adapter Starter Kit http://www.tp-link.us/download/TL-PA4010KIT.html#Utility Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
