TP-Link PG2400PKIT G.hn 2400 powerline adapter pack of 2 🔌
Product description
This wired powerline kit brings faster wired networking through your home using the latest G.hn standard, offering a straightforward plug and play setup for extending wired internet to rooms without new cabling. It suits users who want low-latency connections for 8K streaming and gaming, with passthrough power so you do not lose a wall socket.
Key Points
The set delivers a wired expansion solution that uses electrical wiring to carry network traffic across the house. Installation is simple, with no configuration required: plug one adapter near your router and the other in the room you need to connect. For users frustrated by Wi-Fi dead zones, this provides a direct Ethernet link that reduces lag and interruptions. ⚡️
Performance is built around the latest G.hn technology which, according to the manufacturer, maintains higher transfer rates in noisy electrical environments compared with earlier powerline standards. The built-in passthrough socket helps preserve power outlet availability so you can keep a device plugged in beside the adapter. 🔌
Bear in mind that all G.hn units must share the same electrical circuit to work at full range, and these units are not compatible with HomePlug AV or AV2 adapters. This product provides wired connectivity only and does not create a wireless access point.

Usage Recommendations
Place the primary adapter directly into a mains socket close to your router and connect it by Ethernet to the router’s LAN port. Plug the secondary adapter in the room where you need a wired connection and connect your PC, smart TV or games console to one of the Gigabit ports for consistent throughput. For best results avoid using extension leads or surge protectors between the adapter and the wall socket as these can reduce performance.
If your home has separate fuse boxes or multiple electrical phases, test the connection on the same circuit first because functionality can vary across different house wiring layouts. Also consider that while the kit aims to cut down on wireless congestion, it does not replace mesh Wi-Fi where broad wireless coverage is required.
Practical Tips
Use the passthrough socket to maintain convenience for nearby devices and keep the adapter visible so you can monitor LEDs for link status. For quieter energy use, the device automatically switches to power-saving mode when idle and can reduce consumption substantially during low activity periods, according to the manufacturer. For network environments that already use HomePlug AV devices check compatibility before investing, because cross-standard operation is not supported.
