Hi everyone ✌️

I'm going to try to share my problem with you

My PC is connected via powerline…
The other evening, I saw all the powerline lights flashing, and I thought it was the box going down… but after a bit of research, I realized that in the device manager, when I disable the network card (PCIe GbE family …), the powerline works fine at that moment. So, I thought I would buy a network card to connect to a PCI port below my graphics card. I then received the network card, installed it, but to update the drivers, I shared the connection with my iPhone via a cable, downloaded everything, but before that, I made sure to delete the old drivers before installing those of the new card. And then in the device manager, I have two PCIe GbE family controllers and PCIe GbE family controller #2. At that moment, the powerline is flashing in all directions as if it’s constantly rebooting, and when I disable one of the network cards present, I only have two lights on the powerline and no network connection

Do you have any idea what the problem could be or a solution??

Thanks, I hope you managed to understand me ❤️

Hello
What we can read is that the PC seems to be doing something that the PLC doesn't like.
Question: Does the same PC work directly with the box?
"Before I delete the old drivers" what do you mean? Because if the 'integrated' card is acting up, it needs to be disabled via the device manager.

The box is now much too far away to try with a cable, but before it worked very well (cable like Powerline) and yes, I disable and delete everything via the device manager.

AND you are sure that if you connect another PC to the same powerline adapter (Model? Wired or Wi-Fi?) everything will work?
