EX6150 as a wfi extender with powerline extenders

Question

I have an EX6150 already and want to add powerline extenders to my network. I noticed in the powerline +WIFI option, the WIFI extender looks nearly identical to the EX6150. So my question is this, if I set up a powerline extension, will the 6150 pick that up thru the electirical outlet and broadcast an extended WiFi signal (and the cable port as well), or would I need to purchase the powerline +WIFI set instead?

Thanks

Dave

You can connect the EX6150 to a Powerline network via an Ethernet cable. &nbsp;The EX6150 will function as a Wi-Fi Access Point. &nbsp;You will need to flip the Access Point/Extender&nbsp;switch to Access Point&nbsp;on the EX6150.

Thanks, appreciate the feedback, but I understand that about the EX6150. But what I'm actually wanting to know is can the EX6150 accept the network signal via its power plug (like the WiFi portion of the PLW1000 package, seeing as what's depicted appears to be externally identical to the EX6150)?

Thanks again,

Dave

The EX6150 doesn't have any Powerline capability.
