Powerline 1200 Adapter: All green lights, computer can't detect internet
Hello, I purchased a PLP1200 about 2 months ago, and for the first month it worked...Ok. On occasion it cut out and id have to get my landlords to reset the modem or the resync the device. I then went travelling for a month and therefore did not use it. Since my return, I have had to ask my landlords to reset the modem and or the device nearly every other day for the past 3 weeks because my computer was not detecting internet. All my devices that ran on WiFi were not affected therefore leaving me to believe it was not the modem. So here's the situation: How often: Every time I turn on my computer, and every so often in the middle of me watching netflix, or streaming, or online gaming. Information: All lights are solid green on the device. I do have a power bar plugged into it (as it has the input), where I connect all my other devices, computer, ps4, xb1, switch, both monitors. Age: No more than 3 months I feel like I'm over using the internet, like the device can't handle what i'm doing downloading games on steam, or streaming to twitch, or uploading to youtube, or watching netflix. Computer does not even recognize the device. "No internet connection detected" PLEASE HELP, this is incredibly frustrating. Thank you, Mitch
