the whole purpose of the poweline device is its powerline. If all you're wanting is the wifi AP, you'd be better off with a range extender in AP mode.&nbsp;I've never seen an option to turn off the powerline connection on these devices.&nbsp;

And that's a shame. Because I now have the possibility to cross house walls with an ethernet cable to connect WiFi modules to my ISP box and having a more stable WiFi extension by using Ethernet instead of power line. It's silly to have to buy a new electronic device because it's impossible to disable PLC.&nbsp;PLC always in operation creates malfunctions when several modules&nbsp;PLW1000 are plugged in, even if they are connected by ethernet, because they try to communicate with each other by the power line....&nbsp;TP-LINK make WiFi modules&nbsp;working with PLC or Ethernet.....https://www.amazon.fr/TP-Link-Deco-P9-3-pack-1000Mbps/dp/B07XY7WJ4W
