Hello everyone,
I have been having an issue with my wifi network for over 3 days, let me explain the situation:
Having a poor wifi connection from the router to my desktop PC located in my room, I decided to install a powerline adapter (Devolo 1200), which allows me to pick up the wifi directly from it.
Since a fuse blew and was restored, my desktop PC can no longer connect to the wifi network from the Devolo! Strangely, my mobile phone connects to it just fine as if nothing happened!
I am forced to use an Ethernet cable run, once again from the Devolo, to get internet on my PC (which is working perfectly). This proves to me, at least I think, that the problem comes from my PC and not from the Devolo (?).
Unfortunately, I was using this cable for another device, which poses quite a few constraints...
After hours of searching forums, I sadly haven’t found anything. If someone would be kind enough to look into my case...
Thank you in advance.

Hello, a phone picks up much better than a computer; you may not even see the network name on the computer.
I think the fact that it tripped has caused a loss of power.
I don't know which model you have for the powerline adapter, but there are some that provide WiFi without any cables, nothing to connect.
For example,

Thank you for your comment! As if by magic, my computer has been able to pick up the wifi from my powerline adapter again. I didn't do anything specific, though. Strange, but as long as it works! Thanks again!
