Is your WiFi dongle a USB type? The powerline adapter needs to be connected to a router via an ethernet cable in order for to provide connection to the other powerline adapter.

    Atjbat,

     

    The setup that you want will not work with the device. It needs to have a router with wired connection for the powerline to work.

      I haven't found solution but my friend suggest me a router:

      netgear wn2000rpt

       

      He tell me that this router extender can convert a wifi signal to wired lan,

      It's right?
