QUESTION :
I have a pair of LEA Networks NetPlug AV200 Advanced Chipset 200Mbps PLC Adapter Kit. I love that they give me approximately the same speed in 2 of my most used rooms in the house.
Now, I would like to expand to another room, but the same NetPlugs are not available. The ones that are available,are LEA Networks NetSocket AV200 200Mbps PLC Adapter Kit w/Filtered Outlet (2 HPAV Units)
The question really is, will these work with each other, so that I can have my entire house covered?
Note that I do not live in the US, so it very difficult for me to buy them and return back, so trying it out, is a little bit of a problem.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance

(There are three largest powerline networking standards – HomePlug (nearly gone by now), HomePlug AV (with interoperable AV200 and AV500 variants), and G.hn; as long as you check that all your purchases follow the same standard, they should work fine. Although I’ve been advised to stick to the same manufacturer if I can…)
