FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Q1. How to troubleshoot if there is no Internet connection in my powerline network?
A1. Make sure all powerline devices are on the same electrical circuit.
A2. Make sure the Powerline LEDs light up on all of your powerline devices. If they do not, reset or pair all your powerline devices.
A3. Make sure all hardware connections are correctly and securely connected.
A4. Check if you have an Internet connection by connecting the computer directly to the modem or router.
A5. Make sure your computer’s IP address is in the same segment as your router’s.
Q3. What can I do if a successfully-paired powerline device does not reconnect after it has been
moved to a new location?
A1. Try another socket and make sure it is on the same electrical circuit.
A2. Try to pair it again, and make sure the Powerline LED is on.
A3. Check for possible interference, such as a washer, air conditioner or other household appliance that may be too close to one of the
powerline adapters or extenders. Plug it into the intergrated electrical socket to remove some electrical noise.
