PLW1010: Pick-a-Plug light blinking on/off Green. No Internet

[tjm11111]

I have a netgear Essentials edition 1010 plw1010 powerline.

The Pick a Plug light is blinking on and off green. Consequently i cannot gain access to my wifi from this deive. On my mobile phone it reads "Failed to obtain IP address", or just endlessly, "Connecting....".

I have system reset the device back to factory settings several times now. It keeps doing the same thing.

Someone, please help. I have no idea where to go from here.

Hi @tjm11111

Welcome to NETGEAR Community! 

- What is the distance between the 1st and 2nd powerline adapter? 

- Do you have Internet connection when connected wired to the adapter? 

- Please try placing the adapter close together or in one room and see what happens.
