The devolo single adapters of the Magic series are perfect for areas in your home where you do not yet have optimal Internet reception. These could be newly used rooms or floors, for example. Or you might have just moved into a new home and therefore have more square metres at your disposal.

Can I also expand a dLAN kit?

Expand your devolo Magic network

 

Are you currently using a Magic LAN set? Then you can also add WiFi adapters to this system. This also allows you to bring WiFi to other rooms or  floors.


You have a Magic WiFi set in use? Then you also have the freedom to choose between additional Magic adapters with LAN or WiFi - depending on whether you want to surf everywhere or only want to supply a stationary device with reliable Internet.

 

devolo Magic adapters are compatible with all routers, network devices, devolo Magic adapters and products certified by the HomeGrid Forum. dLAN® powerline adapters and other HomePlug AV products including the devolo Outdoor WiFi powerline adapter are not supported.

Questions and answers about the expansion of a devolo Magic network

Is it possible to use the WiFi function and the integrated LAN port at the same time?

Yes, of course you can use the WiFi signal and the LAN connection simultaneously.

Where do I plug in the Powerline adapter?

Ideally in a single socket. If the adapter is placed in a multiple wall socket, it should be used there alone if possible. You can easily connect other devices or a power strip via the adapter's socket.

Do Magic adapters install themselves automatically?

No. You have to connect the new device to one of the already existing devices within your home network by pressing a button: Select an adapter from the existing network and then press the encryption button on the new adapter.

Do devolo Magic adapters work with all routers and network devices?

devolo Magic adapters are compatible with all routers, network devices, devolo Magic adapters and products certified by the HomeGrid Forum. However, dLAN Powerline adapters and other HomePlug AV products including the devolo Outdoor WiFi Powerline adapter are not compatible with the devolo Magic series.

Is it possible to combine Magic adapters of different speed classes (Magic 1 and 2)?

Yes. In an individual home network, each adapter connects to every other adapter at the highest possible speed (regardless of the other adapters on the network). For example, in a network consisting of one 1200 Mbps adapter and two 2400 Mbps adapters, the 1200 Mbps adapter connects to the 2400 Mbps adapters at 1200 Mbps. At the same time, however, the 2400 Mbps adapters connect to each other at the full 2400 Mbps speed.

 

How many adapters can be connected to each other within an individual home network?

You can easily connect up to eight adapters within an individual home network.

Do Magic devices also work properly with older dLAN devices?

No, dLAN and Magic adapters are not compatible with each other.

Which software can I use to configure and manage my Magic adapters?

You can manage your Magic adapters using both the devolo Home Network app (smartphone) and the devolo Cockpit software (computer).
