Anyone done this? Am using two netgear powerline av500 at the moment and would like to add another adapter with two ethernet ports to my network..

Now I can't see any from netgear so I thinking buying a tp-link adapter with two ports.

Anyone done this?
 
Why don't you just use a switch? rather than another powerline

You can have three powerlines on the same network but they would need to be synced to eachother and I'm not entirely sure they have compatibility through brands, but TP-LINK(TL-PA211, TL-PA201, TL-PA210, TL-PA111, TL-PA101) you can definitely have 3+ powerlines on the same network just fine.

Location of the other devices.. I moving my pc to other side of a room and TV and ps4 will be other side of room.
Pc will be using the powerline I already have and this is connected to a router in another room by the second powerline..

Instead me buying a new triple pack I was thinking buying a single adapter with two ethernet ports for ps4 and sky box.
