Powerline stops receiving bytes for 1-2 min, drops connection

[bobbyjoe01233]

Hello everyone!

I have had this issue for a few months now, and it's been getting very annoying. Once every 1-2 hours, mostly when I'm doing basic web usage (not gaming), I suddenly "lose" powerline ethernet connection, but the ethernet from the powerline is still connected.

After looking at my packets, I discovered that when this outage begins, packets come in very slowly, about 20-30 every 5 or so seconds, while when my internet is functioning normally, I get about 20,000-100,000 a second. Of course, this isn't normal to receive packets this slowly.

I have tried:
-Changing both ethernet cables (one connected to router, other to my desktop)
-Resetting my router
-Changed powerline adapters (I have an extra one of the same model, I decided to try it out)

None of these solutions have provided a permanent fix. Does anyone know anything else I can do?

sounds more then likely the power wiring you are using on the system has too much electrical noise..

Can you try different outlets?

Changing the power outlets slows my speed from 90mbps to 65mbps on download, but upload is unaffected. Super fast speed doesn't matter to me though, as I don't download many things. I'll try this for about a week and see if the problem happens again.
