Powerline 1200 ethernet connectivity problem
Hi,
I have used the product for about 4 years with my roku and no problems. Now , the ROKU does not recognize the wired connection. The top 2 lights are solid green with the botom button showing green for a few seconds and then going out. The ethernet light does not show a blinking green. I tried changing the ethernet canle but that did not work.
Hopefully you can help!
Thanks

Here's the leds
top-power
middle-ethernet
bottom-pick a plug.
the bottom that flashes green and then goes out is the connection back to the other unit. If its not lit, its not connecting. You can replace ethernet cables all you want but your ethernet light is already green so that connection is good.
many things interfere with powerline. these include cheap cell phone chargers, surger protectors, gfci outlets, arc fault breakers, high draw motor/appliances, and even just devices that are going bad. Its worth going through and unplugging to see if something you've added is adding interference.
