P1200 Constant red light for Pick a Plug and frequent disconnects

I just bought this powerline adapter, since I've started using it my connection has become much more..."stable", but my connection every couple minutes will stop for about 30-45 seconds, I am not sure if its a problem with the powerline or my router, modem, or ISP. One thing i did notice is that the Pick a Plug light is always red, no matter where it is.

This suggests a bad link between plugs over the mains circuit. If you see the same thing with the plugs very close to each other, you may have bad hardware.

 

Try a reset.

 

There is a manual for the PL1200 somewhere at the end of this ink:

 

>>>> PL1200 | Product | Support | NETGEAR <<<<

 

See, page 4.

 

If that fails to fix it, return them for replacements.
