Netgear Nighthawk AC2300 orange light when connected to Netgear Powerline 1200 how to fix?
Netgear Nighthawk AC2300 orange light when connected to Netgear Powerline 1200. Anyway to fix this?

A bad cable could do it. Connect the ends of that cable to any two
LAN Ethernet ports on the R7000P. Do the two corresponding port-status
indicators show white or amber?

Which AC2300? Which orange light?
AC2300 is not a reliable guide to model number. Many devices come with an AC tag, but it is essentially a label that Netgear, and other brands, attach to hardware to describe wifi speeds.
The R7000P, one AC2300, has about a dozen LEDs on the top. Several of them have an "Amber" setting.
