TP Powerline Extenders / BT Mini connector - Use TWO port BT as extended connection

Hi,

Probably been asked before, (I did have a search but didn't spot anything so far)

I have received two SINGLE port TP Link Extenders and a (one) TWO port BT Mini connector.

What I want is to use a TP SINGLE port unit as the Base/Router connection and the BT TWO port unit in a room with two devices. (an IMac and a HP Desktop PC)

This would be a great solution and use of available kit/ports.

I will be assisted, (I am visually impaired - but can type and do a range of tech activities) and we will go through the two instruction guides.

Is this workable?

In theory it would work but usually using Powerline adaptors of different brands/makes do not work well together.

Best thing is to try it and hopefully they play nice together.

Well BT supplied all the kit as one bundle - I will have a read and give it a go.

Then report back 🙂
