Powerline adapters lose connection every day
Hi, I have been using several powerline adapters for months without problems but since a few days I have the following problem. Setup: Powerline XAV5001 downstairs connected to the internet ...
Have you added something new electrical to the circuit? A new fridge?
Maybe something is throwing electrical interference on to the circuit.
In my house nothing has changed. The only thing that comes to my mind is that my next door neighbors are renovating.
So there is quite some drilling, sawing etc. Can their use of electrical equipment crash my Powerline adapters?
In my experience electrical power tools are among the electrically noisiest things around.
Turn on a radio and listen for all those crackles and pops.
Yeah, true!
But it is in a different house, separate electrical circuit. Pretty bad if they can mess up my Powerlines.
Could this be solved by using some kind of surge-protection-powercord?
