Hi All,

Ok so I have an existing Powerline Network made up of a Generic Powerline (200mb) Adapter and 2 Western Digital 4 port devices.

One of the WD devices has been playing up so I decided to purchase the TP-Link kit.

I have plugged one Adapter into the Router and one in remotely and they paired to each other fine and I can access the internet over that link (all 3 LED are lit up)

I am unable to connect either to the Powerline Utility however using a direct cable via Cat 5 Cable. Internet works but the Utility reports no devices attached.

I have tried using the 'pairing' option but it doesnt seem to pair properly, turning adapters off and on again and they connect fine with 3 Led again.

1. How can I get the Adapter to show up in the powerline utility ?

I have tried the V2 kit ending 131216 and also a later link I found in a forum link for PA8010P 24092014

2. Are these adapters able to connect to other providers Powerline Devices ? I was under the impression there was a standard so I (Stupidly?) assumed it would be a simple case of plugging them in and that would be it, note my other devices are open (no password) and work fine with each other but not TP_link

thanks in advance
