just bought D-link AV2 2000 power line kit
it does give me required speed on connecting LAN, but did not improve wifi signal.
Am i missing something or got a wrong product ?

Wrong product for what you intend it to do.
be a perfect product for using with something such as the spark smart mesh if the wireless backhaul was a little weak where you wanted it though.

1024kb: There are Powerline kits that terminate with a WiFi AP. Pure Powerline though is aptly named because it uses your power cabling as a data line. So it looks like you purchased the Belmont version not the Kingswood which includes WiFi.
You can though, plug a WiFi AP into the Powerline box where it terminates. Use the Ethernet port to pass data & the 230v socket to power up. That system works well -considering its limitations, certainly better than one of those dreadful WiFi extenders.
seems to complex for me..
but for now, i have returned the product & exchanged it with netgear EX3700. and i am a happy with the results. getting 90-95 mbps where i didnt get signal previously.
