Model: TL-WPA1000 KIT  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

When I plugged it in today it started making a weird, scratchy noise that seems electrical after it fully booted up. Now after some time, it seems to have stopped but I'm concerned by the fact that it happened, or has it always been there and I noticed only now? Although that I highly doubt. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi @LambdaHXBN,

Thank you for reporting your issue to our community.

For your issue, please refer to the below steps to troubleshoot:

1. Change to a different wall socket to power on the device.
2. Hard reset the powerline device and repair it. For powerline extenders, please press and hold the Reset button for 10 seconds to reset them. For power adapters, press and hold the Pair button for 15 seconds until all LEDs turn on momentarily.
