Powerline Has Red light
Ever since yesterday, the powerline icon on my extender is showing solid red light.
Since then my internet speed has gone really slow.
Assist please.

Just to clarify its the "pick a plug" icon that is red? Not the power icon?
If so it means that your link rate is <50 mbps. The manual lists what these led's mean. I'll post a link to the support site at the end. Keep in mind there are different version of the plw1000. Basically your link is slow and is why your connection has slowed down.
You can try troubleshooting as powerline's are sensitive to interference.
