PLW1000v2 has no ethernet connection in PLP2000 network
Hi,
I have a huge problem with a PLW1000v2 adapter connecting to the already existing and secured network of PLP2000 adapters!
Since the first one cannot connect to the existing ethernet network ...
:) Yes, me too. Thanks again.
How many plugs do you have in total?
There is a long running "discussion" around here among people who have tried to get up to six, I think it is.
I assume that you are adding the new plugs in the specified manner:
>>> Adding a powerline adapter to an existing powerline network <<<
I disagree with the advice in the quick start guide "Plug the adapter into a wall outlet where you want to add Internet access."
I find it easier to set them up in close proximity and then to move the new plug to where I want the internet access.

A detailed manual would be a greate thing for such purposes!!! Even some hint notations would be a huge help!!!
There is a generic Powerline User Manual somewhere at the end of this link:

Not that it adds much.
It would also be nice to have a decent software utility but Netgear seems to have left it to the likes of ZyXel to do that.
