PL1200 issues

just dumped some t-link powerlines because they would randomly disconnect every now and again because of agressive standby/power save ... guess what? these do exactly the same!

My PL1200's often cut out right in the middle of using them - e.g., while watching a video or playing an online game. 

Some others have noted that their connection starts working again after a few minutes, but mine does not ... I have to unplug the local node and plug it back in or I will sit there connectionless forever.  I don't know whether it's power save being erroneously activated or just something going bananas - the status lights all remain green but there is no connection.

I set up a periodic task to ping my router through the PL connection to prevent power save.  Sometimes this keeps the connection up for days - other times the connection fails multiple times in a day.

There are complaints about the 1200's going back over a year now - I wish I had seen them before I bought the units.  When are we going to see fixes for these problems?
