The Speed You Need to Eliminate Lag and Buffering

The TL-WPA8730 KIT delivers dual band Wi-Fi at speeds of up to 1750Mbps, allowing you to optimize your productivity and enjoy uninterrupted entertainment from anywhere in your home. In addition to the blazing-fast Wi-Fi, the Kit also takes full advantage of the HomePlug AV2 standard to carry data over your home's existing powerlines at speeds of up to 1200Mbps.

The addition of 2X2 MIMO with Beamforming Technology helps your powerline network function more efficiently, even at greater distances. 2X2 MIMO supports multiple simultaneous connections and increases total throughput by transmitting data to multiple devices at the same time.

The integrated Gigabit Ethernet ports on each component provide impressive speed for any device that requires a wired connection.

The Wi-Fi Clone and Wi-Fi Auto Sync functionalities make it easy to build a seamless network.

The Wi-Fi Clone allows your TL-WPA8730 KIT to automatically adopt the network name (SSID) and password from your existing router to create a secure, unified network. This means that you will not have to switch between different SSIDs or remember different passwords to enjoy the extended network provided by your powerline devices.

Wi-Fi Auto Sync allows the TL-WPA8730 KIT to automatically synchronize the settings from your existing wireless powerline network, making it easy to ensure consistency and improve your online experience. Whenever you change the settings on any device that is part of the network, all of the other devices will be updated automatically to reflect the change.
