Powerline 2000 RED pick a plug

Question

We have had 3 of these adapters for 2 years now, never a problem. Today, with zero configuration changes, new appliances, etc, the Pick A Plug is red on all of them. I have moved them around, restarted them all, no luck. Any thoughts? Literally NOTHING has changed on our network or in our electrical grid.

If you put 2 of the adapters next to each other (primary connected to router and 1 other) do they connect?

Its not always something you changed, its something else changing. The powerline devices work over the power network and if an electronic device is going bad, it could be injecting interference into the powerline system. The best way to test is to put 2 next to each other on the same circuit. That'll give them the best possible connection

Thanks for the reply. I’ve moved them into all kinds of configurations but still only red lights.

Did you try just using 2 of them?&nbsp;Shut off the 3rd. Try a different couple combinations just in case 1 of them is whats going bad an injecting the interfernce

Saraski · Answer

Tried that too. We are going to mess around with the breakers later!
