    No firmware available for this model.

     

    I have the same problem (re-booting restart conneciton interruption no network yigh).

    I read somewhere small packets is the problem for Firware version v0.2.0.7CE

     

    Currently working for me by using a fake QOS setting.

    Use "Powerline Utility" set the QOS of device near PC to use MAC of other device and priority HIGH.

    So far so good .... weird.

     

    If it stops working I will update.
