Is it possible to connect 3 or 4 of the PowerLine AV 500 Mini Adapter devices together or does it just work with 2 devices?

I'm not sure about specific models, but I've 4 powerline adapters all working together. You should get instructions with them on the specific steps required to "pair" each one.

"...the adapters’ “Pair” buttons can be utilized for securing or managing multiple Powerline adapters in your home Powerline network."

One of my 500mb models has broken, if I pick up a pair of the 200mb ones will they work together?

Any response is greatly appreciated.

The Netgear website says yes:

Backward compatible with 200 Mbps & 500 Mbps Homeplug AV including NETGEAR Powerline AV products

This seems to be supported by quite a few users who have tried it here:
