Easy way to get your powerline adapters to connect!!!

I just wanted to post that I have been having so many problems getting the 2 powerline adapters to work. These were bought just so that i could watch on demand telly upstairs, we tried for days to pair and link the 2 together and nothing worked ( it showed no powerline connection) so we gave up!!! Then one day I tried pairing again just on the off chance that it might work and by some miracle it did but I'm not sure how it happened. Then a few days ago I somehow must have knocked something and lost the powerline connection again, we went through everything again but no luck, I then sent an email to tp link who were great and got back to me really quickly, the trouble is all the info and computer Downloads that she gave me didn't work. I was told to put the 2 adapters into the same room and then hold the pair buttons or 15 seconds and that should sort it, if not try downloading there software updates etc, that didn't work either, I then found a little hole in one of the adapters that said reset, I then thought that's it I've cracked it!!! No that didn't work either. So once again I thought of giving up!!! THEN A BRAINWAVE!!!!!! When they ask you to put he adapters in the same room they don't say to attach the Ethernet cable from one o the other, I then paired the two, it flashed and all lights came on!! I left them or a couple of minutes then transferred them to there rightful places and THEY WORK PERFECTLY!!!!
