RBR850 satellite connection to a tplink2000 power line adaptor

Due to modem and building locations, I would like plug a TP link power line adaptor transmitter into an Orbi RBR850 satellite. When I try this, the Orbi satellite looses its connection to the rest of the mesh system. Any ideas ?

    Which Powerline kit did you purchase?

    Make sure you are connecting the network cables and pairing transmittrer and receiver correctly.
