Connection dropping - Ethernet. TL-PA8033P KIT V2
I have an issue with the following device :- TL-PA8033P KIT V2
From looking online, there is a known issue with some (all?) TP-Link powerline adapters which can cause them to drop connection under particular conditions. I am getting messages when playing a game, Elite Dangerous, whereby the connection is dropped ('no internet connection') when the router remains online. From what I have seen, this is a TTL issue and that the device is going to sleep most likely.
The fix I have seen involves creating a batchfile, and have this ping the default gateway once a second to keep the connection active. This is not a desirable solution for me. Has this issue been addressed as part of a firmware upgrade, or are there any other solutions to this problem?
If no solutions are available, I will be returning my devices as they are not fit for purpose.
Thank you for any support.
