How do i copy router settings to my PL1000 powerline

[Waks]

Hi

On my powerline 500 series I was able to use the powerline utility to copy the router settings across.

This would allow me to keep one WiFi signal across my home meaning I don't have to log in to the extenders.

With my new PL1000 series the utility is not compatible and I cannot see an option on www.mywifiext.net

Anyone help please ?

In my experience, you can't copy across the settings. You'll have to recreate them on the new plugs.

Beware using the same SSID for all the wifi devices in your home. If you do that the wifi clients can get confused about which one to talk to. They may end up locked on to a source with a weaker signal than one nearby.
