More Info

Chapter 1 Get to Know Your Powerline Adapter

This chapter introduces what the powerline adapter can do and describes its appearance.
It contains the following sections:

  • Product Overview
  • Product Appearance

1. 1 Product Overview
TP-Link powerline adapter aims to extend your existing home network, with the help of your home’s electrical circuit.
The integrated power socket on the powerline adapter provides an outlet for other electronic devices. Its built-in noise filter eliminates electrical signal noise and therefore guarantees the high quality transmission of data via powerline.
1.2 Product Appearance
Your powerline adapter may differ in appearance slightly from that depicted because of the region and product version.
Note: TL-PA8010P KIT (European version) is used for demonstration in this guide
1.2.1 LED LegendLEDs indicate the powerline adapter’s working status. For more details, please refer to the following table.

Name Status Indication
Power On/Off The powerline adapter is on or off.
Blinking Blinking quickly: Pairing is in process.
Blinking slowly: Power-Saving Mode* is on.

Press and hold for more than 6 seconds to reset the powerline adapter.
Ethernet Port
Connect the Ethernet port to your wired devices, such as a computer, a router or a game console, via an Ethernet cable.

Chapter 2 Use Your Powerline Adapter

This chapter guides you on how to use the powerline adapter.
It contains the following sections:

  • Before You Start
  • Extend Your Wired Network by Plug & Play
  • Secure Your Powerline Network by Pairing
  • Add Another Powerline Adapter
  • Manage Your Powerline Network via tpPLC Utility

2 .1 Before You Start
Powerline adapters work in pairs. You should have at least two powerline products to build a powerline network. To optimize your network performance, please follow these
principles:

  • All powerline adapters should be on the same electrical wiring system.
  • Avoid plugging in powerline adapters and high-powered household devices (such as washing machines and refrigerators) close to one another.
  • Plug the powerline adapter directly into a wall outlet. Do not plug the powerline adapter into a power strip, extension cord, or surge protector.
  • Use the powerline adapter only in below directions.
  • Environment:
    Operating Temperature: 0 ºC ~ 40 ºC (32°F ~ 104°F )
    Storage Temperature: -20°C~70°C (-4°F~158°F)
    Operating Humidity: 10%~90%RH, Non-condensing
    Storage Humidity: 5%~90%RH, Non-condensing

2 2 Extend Your Wired Network by Plug & Play
I want to:
Use two powerline adapters to set up a new powerline network in my house.
For example, I have a router in my house, but there are not enough LAN ports for all my wired devices. I don’t want complex and expensive cabling. People told me that I can solve this problem with two powerline adapters.
How can I do that?

  1. Connect one of the powerline adapters to an available LAN port of the router using an Ethernet cable.
  2. Plug the powerline adapter into a wall outlet.
  3. Plug the other powerline adapter into a wall outlet on the same electrical circuit at the place you want internet. Wait until the powerline LED tp-link TL-PA8010P AV1300 Gigabit Passthrough Powerline Adapter - icon 3 turns on.
    Note: If the Powerline LED does not turn on, reset each powerline adapter to its factory default settings.
    Refer to FAQ-Q2 for detailed information.
  4. Connect your wired device, such as a computer or game console, to the powerline adapter via an Ethernet cable.

Done!
Now enjoy the internet!
2 3 Secure Your Powerline Network by Pairing
All powerline adapters share some common factory settings, and can communicate with one another. If you want your powerline adapters to communicate only with your own powerline adapters, you should pair them. Thus a secured powerline network is formed and other powerline adapters can no longer join your powerline network without
being paired.
Note: You can only pair two devices at a time.
I want to:
Secure my powerline network and prevent other powerline devices from being added to my network.
For example, I’ve extended my network using the Plug & Play method. Now I want to secure my network.
How can I do that?

  1. Verify all powerline devices’ Power LEDs are solid on.
    Tips: We recommend that you plug in your powerline devices next to each other, or as close to each other as possible when pairing. Your settings will not be affected. The devices can be relocated to where they are needed once pairing is complete.
  2. Press the Pair button on any of the powerline devices for 1 second. Its Power LED  should start blinking. Login and Reset Instructions
  3. (Within 2 minutes) Press the Pair button on another device for 1 second. Its Power LED  should start blinking. When the Powerline LED tp-link TL-PA8010P AV1300 Gigabit Passthrough Powerline Adapter - icon 3 lights up, a powerline network has been successfully created.
tp-link TL-PA8010P AV1300 Gigabit Passthrough Powerline Adapter - powerline

Done!
Enjoy your secure powerline network!

2.4 Add Another Powerline Adapter
I want to:
Add a new powerline adapter into the existing powerline network to extend my network.
For example, I’ve already set up a powerline network using powerline devices, but the network does not reach everywhere I need it to. I purchased another one to further extend my network.
How can I do that?

  1. Plug the new powerline adapter into a wall outlet near one of the existing powerline devices.
  2. Press the Pair button on any of the existing powerline devices for 1 second. Its Power LEDtp-link TL-PA8010P AV1300 Gigabit Passthrough Powerline Adapter - icon 3 starts blinking.
  3. Within 2 minutes, press the Pair button on the new powerline adapter for 1 second. Its Power LED  starts blinking.tp-link TL-PA8010P AV1300 Gigabit Passthrough Powerline Adapter - Pair button
  4. When the Powerline LEDtp-link TL-PA8010P AV1300 Gigabit Passthrough Powerline Adapter - icon 3 turns on, it’s done. Relocate the new powerline adapter to the place where wired internet access is needed.

Done!
Enjoy the internet through your extended network!
2.5 Manage Your Powerline Network via tpPLC Utility
The tpPLC utility enables you to view and manage your TP-Link powerline network. Its bold and intuitive interface helps you easily configure each powerline device.
You can find the utility and its user guide on the product support page at https://www.tp-link.com.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q1 How do I reset my powerline adapter?

https://www.tp-link.com/support/setup-video/#wi-fi-routers to search for the setup video of your product.

Connect the Hardware

  • If your internet connection is through an Ethernet cable from the wall instead of through a DSL / Cable / Satellite modem, connect the Ethernet cable directly to the router’s Internet port, then follow steps 1, 5 and 6 to complete the hardware connection.
  • If you already have a router and want to configure this new router as an access point to extend your network, refer to the Access Point Mode section on the back page.

  1. Place the router horizontally and extend the antennas to the maximum angle.
    Note: For best performance, horizontal installation is recommended. Antenna’s direction and position can affect performance in vertical installation situations.
  2. Unplug your modem, and remove the backup battery if it has one.
  3. Connect the powered-off modem to the router’s Internet port with an Ethernet cable.
  4. Turn on the modem, and then wait about 2 minutes for it to restart.
  5. Connect the power adapter to the router and turn it on.
    Power adopter
  6. Check for the following LEDs to confirm the hardware connection, then refer to the next section to set up the internet.

Notes:

  1. If all the LEDs are off, press the LED On/Off button for about 1 second, then check the LEDs again.
  2. If the 2.4GHz, 5GHz-1, and 5GHz-2 LEDs are off, press the Wi-Fi On/Off button for about 1 second, then the three LEDs should turn solid on
