Rick’s answer: Freddie, the powerline networking kit you bought is indeed a good one. This particular kit has very good ratings on Amazon so I’m thinking I either was unlucky enough to receive a bad device or I’m missing a step and doing something wrong with the setup.ĭo you have any idea about what I need to do to get these things working as they should? But after a couple of minutes the connection drops out and I have to restart the computer to get it to connect again. I installed the two adapters per the instructions and I can establish an Ethernet connection between the computer and the router just fine. I tried using a USB Wi-Fi adapter but the signal was just too weak to maintain a usable connection.Īfter reading your post on powerline networking adapters I did some research on Amazon and ended up buying this kit. I’m needing to connect a desktop computer that’s in my basement to my router which is in my sunroom (on the far end of the ground floor of my house).

I hope you can help me with a problem I’m having. Note: The links in this post are affiliate links. Click here to sign up for my free Rick’s Tech Tips Newsletter!
