They are only single band, but can broadcast up to 801.11n, which offers fast and strong wireless signals.Įach unit can broadcast their own network SSID, effectively creating a number of separate wireless networks around your home, or they can be used to project the same network throughout your house. This is a far better solution than Wi-Fi repeaters like the AVM FRITZ!WLAN Repeater 310, which often struggle to boost weak wireless signals.Ī quick touch of a button can turn the Wi-Fi signal on or off, and another button lets you quickly pair up the adapter with the others. However, each unit can take the network being sent through the powerline and turn it into a Wi-Fi signal. Again, they are small and compact, but come with just one Ethernet port for non-Wi-Fi devices. The other adapters are dLAN 500 WiFi units. If you want these features, you should go for the Devolo dLAN 500 AVplus. However, because of its size, and the fact that the Devolo dLAN 500 WiFi Network Kit is an entry-level product, there's no plug socket pass-through, unlike the more expensive Devolo dLAN 500 AVplus.Ī pass-through means you don't lose a power socket when you use a powerline adapter, and it can also be used to filter the power supply, strengthening the network connection and minimising interference. The body of the dLAN 500 duo adapter is small and discreet, which means it can be hidden away in your living room.
It has two Ethernet ports, one for connecting up your modem/router, and another for connecting a non-wireless device to your network, such as a Blu-ray player or smart TV, which is a nice addition and can save you having to buy an expensive proprietary wireless adapter. Each kit comes with a dLAN 500 duo adapter, which plugs into the wall near your modem or router. You can buy a cheaper kit that includes just two devices, and you can buy additional dLAN 500 WiFi units to increase the range.
