Powerline 1200 not working after one day

So I used this powerline extender the day I purchased the adapater no problem played games, stream videos, all the works. I turn my computer off and the next day it says my ethernet connection is an unidentified network, and the adapater connected to the back of my computer is blinking green, the Pick a plug LED particularly. I tried doing a factory reset, and it didnt change anything, additionally I plugged the two adapters in the same room and the both were solid green. Need help before I go and return these adapters.

Just a guess, but is this a Windows computer?

 

If so this is probably a Windows error rather than anything to do with the Powerline plugs. It needs to know how to treat the new network when it boots up.

 

A first  move is to user the Network Troubleshooter in Windows.
