    Strange behaviour of Devolo homemplugs after upgrading to Sky Q Hub ?


    Hello

    I recently experienced some internet / network instability issues with our old sky 102 router, so called Sky and they offered to send me a Sky Q Hub router. I also have Devolo 200 wifi starter kit, which has worked more or less flawlessly for 10 years (200 wifi unit & mini unit for connecting to router).

    After switching router, wifi is better but the 200s just stopped working - no matter what combination of resetting etc. I tried, the dLAN light refused to light up.casue

    As they were old anyway, I decided to upgrade to Devolo 550 set (ethernet only) - I have never used the wifi on 200 (caused issues) so just used them to extend wired internet connection to TV and other devices.

    I have got the 550s working but now have 2 issues.

    1. They are not visible in Devolo Cockpit - this just says "No local PLC device".

    2. Occasional disconnects - the unit near the router flashes red & the unit behind the TV is off (no light at all). If I turn the mains supply to the TV unit off & on again, they reconnect.

    The disconnect appears to happen when the system is idle e.g TV off.

    Can anyone advise ?


    Thanks

    :)

    Sky Q router and Devolo

    I have just had a SkQ router installed and now my Devolo 500 units are not registering on Devolo's Cockpit. Its says "No local PLC device found". Also my Sky Q Box and Router are not talking to each other re wireless connections. Any suggestions on how to resolve the Devolo Cockpit issue

    Sky Q router and Devolo

    so I have been battling with the same issue. I have 4 x devolo 500, previously working with virgin, swapped to sky and now they don't work. tried all sorts from forums like setting a fixed ip, unlocking all firewalls etc and when I went to the cockpit to check connections I get something like no plc connected. I have finally got them working. I had my main devolo connected via ethernet to my new sky modem. I removed all devolos from around the house then removed my ethernet from the sky modem to main devolo and placed it into my iMac instead. turned on the cockpit and works perfect

    Sky Q router and Devolo

    Well its not fixed i just went back to the ole router and its working just fine now i think what i need to do is reset the devolo back to factory settings but no matter what i do it still has the old router details. i am busy for the next two week and dont want to loose the WiFi but i will try again.
    I read somewhere thats sky Q routers do not work with devolo products but i dont know where i read it now
