Powerline adapters don't have IP addresses. If this is a Powerline/WLAN AP combo device, unhook it from the router's network, do a factory reset on it, and hook it directly to a PC's LAN port for configuration.

Thanks for the reply

Well mine does it is written on the back of the device...

i have a TI WPA 271
and a

TP-Link TL-WPA281 AV200 Wireless


How do i access the device - my manual states i need a software that i don´t have- i had it hooked via lan to my pc but how do i access it?

Well there is an ip address written on the back of it. And the question remains how can i get access to it . I hooked it to the pc and then?? The manual clearly states i need some kind of software

Let's start by telling what device exactly you have there. :)

Sure :)I have a ;TP-Link TL-WPA281 AV200 Wireless and a Tp Link Tl-WPA 271 One. I can reset by putting a something in a hole the other doesnt seem to have this ..

Ah, so these aren't just powerline adapters, they are WLAN Access Points too. The manuals for these are available online. They both have a full reset capability somehow. From there, their default configuration should make them either pull an IP address from your router, or default to an IP address you can get to by connecting a LAN cable directly. Please consult the manuals. :)

I have consulted the manuals Peter- and they say i need a configuration software that i don´t have and that is nowhere to be found on the website- therein lies the problem.

One Device can be resetet by the little hole but the other needs to do it over the software- i hope somebody can help me..

Those WLAN access points do have their own configuration software built in. Access is through regular browser software and their (default) IP address.

Know we running in circles- see the name of my post - the ip adress that the powerline has is overwritten by my router ....
That´s the problem...

So? Disconnect the adapter from everything else, reset the powerline connection so it loses connection to the router. Now connect a LAN cable to the PC of your choice, and configure it properly before connecting back to your home network.
