Powerline Network Adapters.
8 Answers
Does anyone know if you can use 2 different makes of Powerline network adapters to create one network? I have 2 On Networks Powerline 200 Home Network Adapters and 2 TP-LINK 200 Adapters. It was a mistake on my part ordering 2 different makes from Currys.

It's one of those things where they should in theory all work together, but it's not always the case in practice. especially if they are different versions of the standard (if they are the whole lot will run at the speed of the slowest version). it can also be tricky on some of them to change the pairing key they come factory supplied with, which would be required to make them work together.
