Powerline utility D 3.1.0.4

Hi

A quick question

i had a XAV101 (master pluged into router) and a XAV1004 no problems

Today i bought a pair of ZAVB1301 to add to my network

at the start i could not get the 1301's to connect to the network at all

i swapped the 101 for a 1301 as the master after a little hair pulling
they have all conected (seemingly)

i then downloaded the powerline utility to see the network but no matter what i do i can only see the 1004 on the computer screen, is this normal or should i see all the devices?

thank you in advance

Paul

  • I have a similar problem I have 2 powerline adaptors which I have had for 1.5 years the are working since I can stream to my TV from my desktop using them.
    The Utility will not recogise they exist on the network

    I have one powerline 'Ethernetted' to my home hub and one to my TV
    My desktop PC is also 'Ethernetted to my home hub
    If I attach my computer directly to one of the devices the utility recognises the device the computer is 'Ethernetted' into but not the other one.
    Extremely frustrating since when I bought them there was no problem whatsoever in seeing them on the network.
