TL-PA8030P sproadically losing connection with each others
Model :
Hardware Version :
Firmware Version :
ISP :
Hello, I have a pair of TL-PA8030P (CH version) installed. They seem to sometime lose connection with each other (it's not an internet problem, I just don't have LAN anymore for a couple of mins but wi-fi still works fine in the meantime).
I used to have some (much) older devolo devices, which never had this problem. Now, I don't know if it is a problem with the devices, my apartment wiring (it's quite old, still cotton cables I think..?) or the fact that both devices are in different rooms (not sure if they're on the same fuse or not).
Anyway, my main issue is that "it used to work with older devices but not with newer ones". But it's impossible to find regularity in the problem, sometimes they work great for several days straight and then suddenly there are problems several times in a row with 5 minutes. It seems to help to switch the ethernet cables from a plus to another.
Is there anything I can do/try to diagnose the problem? Is a firmware upgrade worth a try? PLC utility says version is 2.0.0.382-05_803111_150813_013
Thanks!

I read "Botch the box and the units will have the hardware version written on the labels" :)
Anyway, I suppose I have version 1.0? Is there no solution then? Could I ask for a warranty return, has the defect been proven/admitted by tp-link?
