THE DLAN 500 AV WIRELESS+ STARTER KIT

The polished white powerline adapters of the DLAN 500 AV Wireless+ Starter Kit may not be the smallest ones around but you can't ask for a power socket and still worry about size (devolo also makes a lot smaller Wi-Fi adapters without a power socket).

At the front of the secondary adapter we see 3 buttons (Wi-Fi on/off, WPS on/off, LAN pairing) and 4 activity LEDs (Power, Link Quality, Link Activity, Wi-Fi activity).

We were quite impressed to see that the adapter comes with 3 Ethernet ports so aside the Wi-Fi feature you can plug up to three devices into it.

The Wi-Fi key, company logo, serial number, electrical specifications, 2D barcode and several certification logos are placed on a sticker at the rear of the adapter.

Aside the power socket and the devolo logo at the front of the secondary adapter we see 3 activity LEDs (Power, Link Quality, Link Activity).

The secondary adapter features a single Ethernet port with which it connects to the modem/router (we wish it had two) and a reset button.

At the rear we find the security ID, electrical specifications, serial number, 2D barcode and some certification logos.

Although the activity LEDs look nice as you will see later on you can disable them.
