PLW1000v2 and PL1000v2 : WiFi present but not wroking
So, I got for the first time a pair of powerline devices (PL1000v2 and PLW1000v2 wifi), I installed them one near my router, and the other one in my bedroom, But the WiFi doesn't work, and all the LEDs light up as it's written in the book. So why does the WiFi pop up in my samrtphone, but cannot connect?
Thanl you in advance
- Alright so, yesterday I found the problema and it was just a dumb thing: I put the LAN canale in the wrong port of the router XD. Thank you anyways for answering my question.

What tells you that it is the wifi source that causes your problem?
Wifi is a two way process. The access point (your PLW1000v2) broadcasts wifi. Your smartphone then has to do its thing.
What messages does the phone show when you try to connect? Have you tried with a different wifi client?
