PLP1200 PowerLine and Static IP
I have a IP Camera connected to my PLP1200 and having problems. The camera is has a static IP, but for some reason it keeps changing. How to set my PLP1200 to have a Static IP? Thanks, Jim ...

Powerline has no control over that. Think of it as a bit of wire.
Control is down to your router.

Is this really something that you can set on the camera? That depends on the camera.
You need to work out the difference between an IP Address Reservation on the router and a Static IP on the device.
As the Powerline Plug is not involved, you won't get much more here without telling people what the camera is and what router is in charge if the network..
