Get Started
PowerLINE adapters give you an alternative way to extend your network using your existing electrical wiring. Plug two or more PowerLINE adapters into electrical outlets to create a wired network connection. Use a PowerLINE WiFi access point to add a WiFi access point to your wired network. You can add up to eight adapters to extend your network.
