Hi Seph
No, perhaps I have not explained well enough.
1/ One dLAN 500 is connected to the SH by ethernet cable & network light is lit.
2/ The PC is connected to the SH by ethernet cable - this is a tower PC and does not need to be relocated.
3/ The PC works and has full internet access.
Cockpit (on the above PC) warns me that no adapter has been found when pressing the encryption button for more than 1 second. When I do this the power light on the dLAN flashes.
the second (and third, when I get the second one working!) dLAN 500 will be elsewhere and will be used for a laptop. However, the second dLAN has power and "home" light lit, but no network light.
Does that explain it better?
I attach a diagram that might explain the current set up. Thanks for your help, much more prompt than the Devolo helpdesk!!
I was going to attach it but I can only insert a URL link - if you tell me how to insert a thumbnail like you did to me I will send it
