Disconnects and drops
I just bought the PLP1000 to connect my AP to my router. What a joke, it goes into sleep mode after 10min of non-activity and doesn't wake up. Reading all the solutions to this problem without NETGEA...

Hi Donfrimano,
Welcome to NETGEAR community! :)
We're sorry you're having that kind of issue with your powerlines but we'll try to help.
Since when do you have this problem?
Did you try to reset the powerlines?
Have a lovely day,

Happy to hear that you would like to support. I had this problem since day 1. Owned them for about two weeks. Factory reset doesn't help. This is a well known issue with these and Netgear is ignoring the problem. It can't take long to write a SW so that you can tweak the settings just like you can with ALL other powerlines on the market...except Netgears.

Hi Donfrimano,
Could you send me the serial number of your CPL and the email address you used to register it in a private message, please?
Have a lovely day,

Hi Donfrimano,
Did you try those steps:
1. Connect a powered-on Ethernet device to one end of the Ethernet cable.
2. Connect the Powerline device to the other end of the Ethernet cable. The Powerline device should return to normal mode within two seconds.
Have a nice day,
Patrycja
