PLW1010v2 Stopped connecting to devices.
I have had this device working for almost 2 years. the other day the door bell that I connected to it about a month ago was not on the network. I found that I can no longer connect to this device at ...
It is working again. Thank you all for your help. Sorry to waste your time.
Not being the brightest bulb on the string I thought it should still connect to the wifi even if there was no internet access; so it never occurred to me to check the Ethernet cable.
It seems that this device can only be accessed, for setup, by entering the my wifi ex dot net (not sure why they dont want you to know that) in a web browser while connected to its wifi network. It has been so long since I had set it up I did not remember how to login to it.
While troubleshooting the problem I found out that the port on the router, I had the Powerline unit plugged into, had gone bad. I moved it into a different port and it started responding again.
I can not seem to login to the router to change settings though. Perhaps I will figure it out as well someday.
Thank you all,
