Try moving the adapters to the same room and trying them. If the pick-a-plug light is off or red, it means poor connection/no connection.
And many things impact powerline connections. these include:
cheap made electronics
gfci outlets
arc fault breakers
surge protectors
high draw appliances
bad/cheap cell phone chargers
distance
old/poor wiring
