Powerline AV500 starter kit

The D-Link DHP-309AV kit contains two compact PowerLine AV+ Mini Adapters and two Ethernet cables. It uses existing electrical wiring to extend a network without new cabling. Adapters support HomePlug AV with up to 500Mbps powerline speeds and 128-bit AES encryption.

Homes without Ethernet runs

Suits households that need a wired link in rooms where Wi-Fi is unreliable and running cable is impractical. Not for buyers who need gigabit wired throughput or who want more than two endpoints without purchasing extra adapters.

10/100 Ethernet port limit

Each adapter provides a single 10/100Base RJ-45 port, capping wired throughput at 100Mbps even though the powerline link is rated at 500Mbps. This port speed decides whether the kit matches the required local network performance.

Questions about this item

How do I pair the two adapters and which step do people often skip?

Plug both units directly into wall sockets, connect each to your router or device with the supplied Ethernet cables, then press the encryption button on one adapter and within two minutes press the button on the second; the step most users miss is waiting for the PowerLine LED to turn solid before releasing the button.

What part will need attention or replacement after extended use?

The RJ-45 ports and internal power supply are the only components that can degrade; keep the adapters in the 0°C to 40°C operating range and avoid power strips to maximise their service life.

What is the first performance limit I will hit during a long file transfer?

The 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port caps sustained throughput well below the 500 Mbps powerline rating, so wired speed becomes the bottleneck before the HomePlug AV link does.
