About TP-Link AV1000 Powerline Starter Kit (TL-PA7017 KIT)
Overall Feedback:
93% positive
80% liked the compact and durable design, but 20% found it flimsy
I was impressed with the plastic quality, size, packaging, and contents of the powerline-network-adapters.
I use powerline-network-adapters when gaming upstairs or using my gaming PC. The difference in quality is astounding.
I added powerline-network-adapters to my office and scope kit, and another near my router. Now, I have high-speed networking that is far more reliable than WiFi.
The adapter has a good build quality with a plug and play feature. There is no wire clutter and both IPv4 and v6 are functional.

83% praised the connectivity, but 17% experienced issues
There is a little bit of noise in the connection coming from the 60 cycle in the voltage, but it's not a real problem.
The connection was bad and the quality was lowered.
89% found it easy to set up and install
Installing the powerline-network-adapters was easy, especially since my room was the furthest away from the house's mounted wifi.
For me, the set up was easy because my desktop is close to an outlet.
84% found the network speed to be fast and reliable, but 16% experienced slow speeds
I found an outlet with a network speed that varies between 450Mbps to 575Mbps.
Connected directly to the router, my PC has a download speed of around 800mbps, while through powerline it's around 225mbps.
I ran multiple speed tests and the maximum speed I could get was 60 mbps, which is pretty bad.
I confirmed my internet speed test and found that I am getting about 2mbits out.
79% praised the extended range and coverage, but 21% experienced dropped signals
After turning off the wifi and using the adapter, my speed increased to 86.6 Mbps.
The setup was easy for me as my desktop was close to an outlet, indicating good range and coverage of the powerline adapter.
In my home, the wifi signal does not travel far due to the construction of the house.
