Adding TP Link Powerline devices

Sorry to appear thick with this question, but I have read advice on the TP LInk pages re' adding additional units but I'm still somewhat confused. I currently have two TP-Link 211 units working successfully and now wish to add two TL-PA4010P units.

Can I just press the pairing button on one of my current units and then the pairing buttons on the new ones for them to communicate? Or is this too easy?

If I'm I wrong could someone please tell me the correct procedure or point me in the right direction for instructions?

Thansk.

    You know this is the Netgear Community, right?

     

    TP Link forums are here:

    All the units you have need the same Encryption Key (password) to communicate with each other correctly.

     

    Once you have that set the same on all units they should work together.

     

    Hope this helps
