Remember to post modem, router, "ipconfig /all" results etc..

Could be just some basic configuration error of omission or commission.

What does your network look like?

For example (line diagram):

Connection path being the following line diagram where ----> represents an Ethernet cable:

ISP === (coax, DSL, fiber) ===> Modem ---->[WAN Port] Router [LAN Port] ----> [LAN Port] Wired network device(s)

and

~~~~> Wireless network devices

Feel free to edit and correct my line diagram.

was my powerline adapters never expected that to be the problem seeing as there 2000mbps

You would have had that answer in the first reply if you had mentioned you were using powerline networks.

Powerline networks are massively deceptive about the speed to begin with and then they are dependent on the details of the electrical wires in your house.

Powerline networks have told massive lies that they know were lies since the very beginning. They sold the AV500/av600 units pretending they could do say 500mbps BUT they only put a 100mbps ethernet port on them. So they knew when they manufactured them they could not get those speeds and the actually are lucky to get 50mbps.

The so called 2000 units only have gigabit ports on them and in real world installs most people see about 130mbps.

The best option when you can't run ethernet all the way but have coax cables is to use MoCA. These units can actually get full gigabit speeds. They sell units with 2.5g ports and claim faster speeds but you have to remember a real ethernet cable on a 2.5 gigbit port can do 2.5g up and 2.5g down at the same time for a total of 5gbit. So in effect the moca 2.5 units are really gigabit ethernet since you need 2gbit to actually simulate that.

So these powerline adapters work on the laptop but not on the desktop is that correct?

 

[bill001g]

Hard to say why it would work with one machine and not another powerline networks have very little access to debugging.

If you got above 130mbps on your laptop I would be extremely suspect
