PLP 2000 and adding additional PLP1200
I have two PLP2000 and both are working fine. Pick a plug LEd light is solid green (Means throughput is more than 80 mbps). Now I bought additional two PLP1200 and when I added this PLP1200 then pick a plug light on the PLP2000 turns red , as per the manual if pick a light led is red then throughput will be between 50 mbps and 80 mbps.
My question is if both models are gigabit capable then why throughput falls below 80 mbps when I add PLP1200? Should I get all four adapters to PLP1200?

Did you add the new plugs to the existing powerline network? Or did you set up a separate network with the PLP1200s, with one connected to the router?
Remember, when adding new plugs to an existing network, you need to follow this advice:

I am adding PLP1200 as additional plug in the existing PLP2000 network. I have followed instructions as per this link too
