Powerline Adapter and F2000

    So,

    It seems my new F2000, the sky modem before that and the F2000 before that don't like powerline adapters.

    If I try to download anything using them, the router crashes/resets. Normal browsing is fine, but anything that involves using the bandwidth crashes the router. There is no problem with Wi-Fi nor connecting the router directly.

    Any suggestions? :(:mad:

    Can you try different adapters? I have the ones provided by eir (can't remember the brand), and they've been solid since day one. They connect the F2000 to the rest of my network.

    I would suspect a mains wiring problem TBH.

    Have you ever got a solid connection between powerline adapters?

    I did, downstairs. As soon as I plug the 2nd adapter upstairs and download anything (normal browsing is fine) the router crashes.
