iv got several orange branded homplugs,and never have needed to use a configuration tool...just plugged in and hey! presto...but much respect and thanks to e45 for the tutorial above,which im sure will help many...respect where respect is due!

 

Well if they are the orange brand made by devolo you will have to as i have bought lots of them and all needed to be configured

Maybe you have the older ones and anyone that i have come across have had the same problem with theres

 

can anyone shed light on the vonets vap 11g wifi bridge i purchased one set it up with my router and pc but when i attach it to my starview 7 usb and lan it wont connect anyone know what i might be doing wrong please

 

check that it works for your internet when connected to your pc....if it does,you should have no prob....usually turn router off and on whilst bridge connected to box works.

 

and also if your plugs are on different circuits, they wont work, tested some belkins last week and found that if, your plug beside your router and your plug that is beside your cable box are on different circuits, they dont work, maybe of use to those having issues with homeplugs and they dont sync up to each other

 

I have just purchased a pair of Comtrend Power line Adapters to use with the A780 KV.
Are these just plug in and use?,as got no manual with them
Thanks Peter

 

Yes m8 plug and play or at least they should be
