It COULD be the powerline adapters....I run a smart TV through 2 powerline adapters to the router as a fixed connection , preiodically I will also get the TV complaining there is no network connection, the built in diagnostics show no route to the router/internet and after a short while it seems to 'reset' and then work again.
Some weeks it doesn't happen at all , others it'll happen 2-3 times in a day followed by no issues for weeks again.
I've tried swapping them around but they are the same make and model. Maybe I should try a 500 instead of a 1200 for a while.
I have just replaced the TP-Link 1200 with a Devolo 650+ I had lying around. I've not tried this before so it's a good idea to try a different make.
ok so I've had 1 disconnection with the replacement plug so its not the old plug which is at fault. So I'm still thinking its the motherboard.
I have currently installed Windows 10 Pro on our laptop which is then connected via ethernet to the same switch as my desktop. I plan to leave it on all day tomorrow to monitor disconnections.
Thanks, will do.
If the pc disconnects again then its the motherboard, if the laptop disconnects then its the house wiring.
I don't believe they have any diagnostic tools. Motherboard make is in my sys specs. I think all those errors are another indication as well.
I've just had a disconnection but the laptop remained connected so I'm pretty sure its the motherboard.
