Yes, the powerline adapter only creates a LAN inside the home; you still need a modem or router for internet access.
The TL-PA101 can transmit data up to 200 meters.
No, the two models use different protocol standards and are not interoperable.
Generally they have little impact, but power strips and chargers may interfere; place the adapter directly in a wall socket and keep it away from such devices.
